How is this a problem? You learned how to run a PC, programming a PDP-8
is at least an order of magnitude simpler. Seriously, the instruction
set and archetecture is so simple it's downright inviting. The DG Novas
are pretty straight forward too. The old machines didn't have to be huge,
complex or networked. They only had to work.
