- Well, I'm still running a VT55 as the console on my PDP11/45. Thats the
- Graphics model of the VT52 - it has the VT52 board set with an extra board
- screwed to it. That is actually a Hex-heioght flip-chip styled board, but
- alll external connections are made by soldered-on cacbles terminating in
- 0.1" spacing connectors, not by the edge connectors on the board. My VT55
- also has the electrolytic printer, which I haven't got working yet.
- Last summer, I wire-wrapped a new backplane so that I could fit a VT11
- board set into the PDP11/10, and thus build a GT40. Got lunar-lander to
- run on that after a bit of hacking...
