Hey Allison, that's my line :^) BA123's are the ulitimate end tables! Of
course a pair of BA23's and a large board to go on top would work in a
pinch.
Seriously, if anyone complains about the size of the computer, just sell
them on the idea it's a table :^) Hmmm, this is probably why I've got
problems whenever, I want to use my PDP-11/44, I'm always using the racks
as a work surface.... Major effort to clean it off always :^(

Um, that would be on the VAX though wouldn't it, or is there one for the
PDP-11? I'm aware of video cards for PDP-11's, but am not aware of them
having been any more than a rarity.
