Actually, this was a good score; mostly because many of the non-dec
floppy/hard disk subsystems could be used to format RX01 and RX02
floppies (standard RX drives can't do this-- you have to buy the media
pre-
formatted from DEC!).
I've come across a few GenRad systems; most were UniBUS (PDP-11/44,
11/04, etc.) I found one that used to have a PDP-8!
