They also made a cardiac monitoring system for CCU's and ICU's
out of an 11/35 with a bunch of DR11B's ano other stuff.
The one I saw looked like a beta test -- one of the oldest 11/35's
(basically an OEM'd 11/40) I'd ever seen. Wierd.

They replaced it with all new HP gear that year.

I was working on one of these antiques about 1985 while a patient
went Code Blue in the next room. Unsettling at 2:30 AM.

      Three things never anger: First, the one who runs your DEC,
      The one who does Field Service and the one who signs your check.
