I was told to look here for information on obtaining a binary of 2bsd for
my PDP-11/73.

I rescued the little critter from a whole bunch of stuff that was destined to
be sold to a junk dealer.  The junkman ended up with two 11/34s and an 11/23,
plus several cartridge disk drives (RL01s?) and a couple of Interdata 7/32s.
I chose the 11/73 to rescue since (a) it was cute, looked like a Microvax and
(b) it was lightweight enough that I could *roll* it.

Anyhow, it came with RSX-11M and Basic Plus 2.  It has an RD53 and a TK50.

I have a price of $2000 from a couple of companies for unix for the thing
and even at that price they don't want to sell it because I don't have
9-track.  At that price I don't want to buy it either, since it's absurd.
Besides I'm just a lone programmer with a cute machine in his basement
(cue Sanford & Son theme).

Another common reply, by the way, has been "assuming you have a Unix source
license, you can get such-and-such, but otherwise jump in a lake".

Anyhow it's pretty strange that just about everybody supports the old Unibus
PDP-11's but almost nothing is available, even from DEC, for the 11/73 -
I think this machine is only about 3 years old!!!

I'd apparently have been better off with the PDP-11/34's!

Well, I suppose I have the answer to my question... Anyone have an extra
set of RSX-11M manuals (version 4.1) laying around?
