Don't forget Pluribus used the same boards. I think most of those were
finally scrapped in the late 90s. They had been repurposed after I
think it was Citibank dumped a lot of them.

The MAC-16 in this ad looks odd. The front panel has nothing behind
it...or at least, very little. I'm not familiar with the MAC-16, but

if it's LEC, it may be for a MAC-16
the form factor of the SUE boards is quite different (single edge connector)

The one at Rice University circa 1978 also had 6? 8? processors in

LEC16 was a copy of the PDP11. Lockheed sold it to BBN. BBN relabeled
it Pluribus.
I was part of the DEC engineering team looking at purchasing the LEC,
as one of the features was the ability to be an Arpanet IMP.
I was quite familiar with t the Unibus, and noticed the print set was
