That beats any of my stories, for sure.

"I'm doing some research for a novel" is basically magic words. I've gotten replies from all kinds of people I never expected to answer. Its great!

Actually I probably can help with that. Let me ask around. If you're interested, the Vintage Computer Federation has a thriving PDP community.

Just curious, I know a lot of fantasy writers in my vintage computing communities, so I figure it might work both ways. Also, if anyone is doing a period piece and needs to know about computers from some era, hit me up. I know lots.

Yup. I am looking in to doing that next. Unfortunately I am in the midst of a massive heatwave and have all my more sophisticated computers shut down. Specifically the machine with all the files for the website on it. I'm typing this on an intel atom PC the size of a hockey puck.
