Well, the reason I wanted to do it *old* and *fast*...

I wanted to do it old because I actually own a first-revision PDP-11/70
which my father bought brand new back in the mid-70's when it first came
out before I was born. It's a really really neat machine with gobs of I/O
bandwidth. It's fast too. So it made me think what I might be able to do
with modern components and still make it compatible with my 11/70. (FYI,
my 11/70 is still working and is still original, down to its fuses and
fascia).

Peace... Sridhar
