Should be the easiest OS to start        go> with.              I also built one some time ago, along with the PiDP-8. They are beautiful       replicas and a joy to work with.              The OSes that come with it are pretty interesting, but the DEC and DEC-like       ones are quite... unique from a modern perspective. You can see the evolution       from OS8 to RT-11 to VMS to CP/M to MS-DOS, with the early ones being       primitive shades of what we have now.              Jeff.              --- Mystic BBS v1.12 A46 2020/08/26 (Raspberry Pi/32)        * Origin: Cold War Computing BBS (1:387/26)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 15/0 18/200 19/38 50 90/1 105/81 106/201 633 987 120/340       SEEN-BY: 123/131 124/5014 5016 129/305 330 331 153/7715 154/10 218/700       SEEN-BY: 226/30 227/114 229/110 206 317 400 424 426 428 452 664 700       SEEN-BY: 240/5832 266/512 280/464 282/1038 292/854 301/1 317/3 320/219       SEEN-BY: 322/757 342/200 387/25 26 28 396/45 460/58 633/280 712/848       PATH: 387/26 396/45 229/426           |
