PDP? Like PDP-11, RSX, KED and alike? Somebody is still using that? It looks like the old computers never die. They live forever in our nightmares. Don't get me wrong, I spent significant part of my career being a VAX/VMS system administrator and, as a student, I was using FORTRAN and PASCAL compilers on PDP-11. We had some fun with the DEFINE FILE command and old RZ drives but I am now 46 years old, quarter of a century after the last use of an RSX box that I can remember. Anyone who has kept these boxes in a corporate IT after all these years deserves to be shot, regardless of my nostalgia and Peter Pan complex.
