@SDF Very nice! 'learn' doesn't seem too happy on it; it lists the entries but when you try and select a subject it says it hasn't got it.

@SDF I wondered if Piggy had moved, but I recognize the carpeting. Why are there panels behind it?

@SDF Would like to have a look, but my terminal is too old for ssh connections. It only can do simple telnet…

@SDF Of course now you mentioned it here it will never have a free serial line again...All of the serial lines are in use. Please try again later.

@N0ZB @SDF I used to actually use one of these babies back in the 1980s. I even had one of the brown-on-brown ADM-3A termainals.

@SDFThanks a lot for this new computer experience. After several attempts I even achieved a new entry in the guestbook. 💪

@SDF I'm not used to seeing an 11/70 w/o the old style black and red switches. That looks more like a baby DECsystem 2020.

@SDF Just beautiful. Great reminder how pure and powerful Unix once was.Thinking about it, my first serial-line terminal login on a SysV machine was back in January 1990, eons ago. It was a big tower case server with a 68020, and even then it was considered an older machine for legacy projects and unimportant enough to let newbs like me have a go at it. Your machine is about a generation or two older, and still running strong. Great job!

@mvilain it is a repacked 11/70 marketed as the decdatasystem-570 in a double wide shorter boy cabinet.

@SDF Used to run some mainframe printing off a PDP-11 back in the '80s. Trying to remember if that was used in conjunction with a Xerox laser printer or was something else. My memory is fuzzy about that.

@SDF @mvilain I'd never heard of this, and DuckDuckGo isn't telling me much. What markets did the DECDataSystem target?(I used 11/70s early in my career, though. RSTS/E and 2.x BSD.)
