I think we had this discussion a while back, but I  know that my 11/20 just

ok just  re-clarifing.... so then w would be safe in reading the  unix 
history -   the 11 they had   since when they got it a  disk was not avail. (??? 
REALLY!!?? Hard to believe DEC  would  ship a  processor  without  disc  
i/o???  COMMENTS?  )   would   have  just  probably said  PDP-11
