- I have the opportunity to pick up the aformentioned items (basically an
- entire LSI-11 system) for what seems like a reasonable price. I used one
- of these briefly in a lab at school, and it seems like it might be a fun
- system to play with.
-
- Are there any PDP-11 nuts out there who can tell me whether or not this is
- a worthwhile thing to spend some money on? Will I receive thousands of
- hours of hacking enjoyment from this system? Is RT-11 a true path to
- enlightenment? Will this system at least look neat sitting in a corner
- of my office or apartment? Is there anything I can actually do with it?
