It looks like we will be recieving a donation of three PDP-11/23's in the near
future, and no one here seems to know anything about them.  So here I go
again.  So here come the questions, ready or not:

        1) What operating system does it run?

        2) Can it be adapted (hardware or software) to be a PC-NETWORK
           file server?

        3) How good is software availability and diversity?

        4) How popular is this machine?

        5) Is it easy to operate, manage, and maintain?

        6) Does anybody have any experience with the PDP-11 as a A/D recording
           device for electrical circuit testing, etc ... and what was your
           conclusions about using it for this?

        7) What does it take to run this thing (power requirements,
           peripherals, etc.), and what kinds of terminals does it require
           (ascii dumb, vt-52, vt-220, vt-100, IBM-PC emulations)?

        8) What is the base cost on a PDP-11/23 (I don't have specs on memory
           or disk storage).

        9) What do YOU use the PDP-11 for ?

Very general, but that's where we're going to have to start.  Thanks in advance
for anything you may have to offer.  I'm a PC man myself, but somebody's got to
do it!
