I stumbled across a rabbit whole for those of us who like to understand the history of Unix. Someone uploaded a whole training course on the PDP 11:

Be warned - it does look like a copy of a copy of a VHS tape, which is to be expected, I suppose.

I cut my teeth on PDPs...first eights and then 11/34 and 11/44 machines. Usually used RSTS/E instead of UNIX on them. Didn't start with UNIX until college and AT&T 3B2 and DEC MIPS workstations.

Now, lets see if this posts without moderator approval. If I'm still in the "approval required" phase then this will probly be my last post.

Welcome aboard!
Sorry, you will be in the moderator queue for some more posts. This keeps a lid on spammers, and you may agree with me that this is keeping the forum a lot more readable. But normally I, at least, check that queue several times a day and so do the other moderators. You will not be in there for long, and your posts will be approved swiftly. Please be patient there, it is worth it. This time, it was not for 20 minutes.
