I could also say that everything that's going on is Dave's fault,
but that would be too easy. I'm blaming it on Sampsa ignoring the
tribble near him.

    That is most certainly NOT my fault; in fact there are two PDP-10s
here that will be up and running (and on HECnet!) if someone can hook me
up with some MASSBUS drives.

What kind of PDP10?

    A pair of KS10s. (you know the ones)

What did you plan to run? Is DECnet even possible if you run TOPS-20? I seem to remember MRC mumbling at one time about him having hacked that, but I'm not sure if it ever became officially supported or distributed.

Tops-10 might work with DECnet, but then I also wonder over which interface, and if it do Phase IV...?
