Excuse me? My bogometer just triggered. I can think of at least
half a dozen operating PDP-10s without even stretching hard --
CH2MHill, Bonneville Power Administration, NSWC, the DDN NIC,
White Sands Missle Range (wsmr-simtel20.army.mil), University of
Stockholm, U Wash Locke Center, the Shakespeare cluster at
Stanford, etc. Bonneville Power was going around the Pacific
Northwest not too long ago buying up everything that even smelled
like a PDP-10 for spare parts.
