  * DECnet for RT11.   This is easier at least, because DEC actually sold
such a product, but I don't know if actual kits and documentation for it
still exists.   In either case, I've got PDP-11s and PDP-8s that could be on
HECnet if they had networking software.

As many know finding a copy of this has been a goal I've had for a *LONG* time.   I know of one person that might a copy, but last I heard, couldn't get to where the floppies were and didn't have time. Keep in mind this doesn't run over Ethernet.
