I recently upgraded our three PDP's (2 11/70's, one 11/84) to RSTS 9.5.
The latest version is 9.7 (?).  I pretty much regret the decision.  We
were very stable at 8.0 for a long time.  The main reason I upgraded was
that most of software updates require 9.0 or greater.  I also thought
the VMSlike DCL capabilities would be nice, such as LOGIN.COM files
for users.  

However, there are more bad things than good at 9.5.  I will not get into
specifics until I determine that there really is life out there in this
newsgroup.  Is anyone out there using 9.5 that would like to have a 
discussion about some of its 'features'?  Is anyone from DEC reading
this  if so are you brave enough to admit it?

Awaiting your response.
