About 5 years ago I saved these pics off eBay of what looked to me like an Eastern Bloc PDP-11/15 console. As I have a (rebadged) 11/15, I thought they were interesting. These aren't my photos, I don't own them, saved for educational purposes only. http://www.surfacezero.com/g503/uploads/612/East

I think this is pretty cool map; I've seen different versions too in publications like Computerworld and EE Times (long ago of course). I wonder if an interactive map exists somewhere, like overlaying all of the old addresses in Google Maps or something like that. Rich On 12/5/22, 9:54 AM, "
