I see that there is yet another person desperately searching for 
a Unix OS for the q-bus PDP systems. 

I am also looking for a copy of Unix for the PDP, but that is 
not why I am posting.

On the note of 18- and 22-bit architectures, the 11/23 IS a 22-bit
microcomputer. I know this as I am running an 11/23 with 1 meg
of memory. 

The memory limitations, however, are in the backplane.

If the backplane being used is a BA11-SA, then it's 22-bit. 

I forgot the other types of q-bus backplanes, but I think the 
BA11-N is 18- or 16-bit.
