In the past 6-12mos, I think I've seen a couple of PDP-8's and 11's up for
sale, Real Cheap.  Think we could bring back the dead?

Curiosity:  Just how does a PDP-8 or PDP-11 being used by one person
rank up side an XT or an AT?

[The author has only seen pictures of PDP-11's, and has never touched
either. :-) ]
