I have just turned off a PDP-11/44 which has been pretty much
continuously running since the early 1980's (I'm not sure when we got it
from DEC). It is available to anyone who wants it, but you better act
fast, as others are itching to get the room it is in (and will
probably consign it to the dumpster). There are also two RK06 drives,
but we haven't been using them for perhaps a decade (using a Winchester
disk on a Dilog MSCP controller).
There are also two DZ boards on this system, plus documentation (again,
act quickly!).
Give me a call or send e-mail ASAP. This machine is located at
Rockefeller University in New York City. You would need to Come and Get
It ...
