This raises something I've always been curious about. To what extent were
the Unix folks at Bell Labs already familiar with DEC systems before the PDP-7?
Well, I recall that there was a PDP-8 in the keypunch room on the 5th floor of
building 2. I believe that it was hooked to a card reader and printer so that
one could get a listing of a deck of cards without having to use the computer
center. But that's probably not what you're asking about.
