Hello from Gregg C Levine
Can any of you point me in the directions of a website that completely
discusses this operating system, PRO or P/OS? As I recall the DEC
Professional system was basically a shrunken PDP-11. Finding one of
course, would be a good thing.
A Pro350 was an F11, a Pro380 a T11 (I hope I remember this correctly)
CPU.
The 380 had a J11.
I think you could also run RT-11 on them.
Correct. RT11 have support for the PRO, even if it isn't official.
Some big VAX models
had Pro's as console processors/systems. RD5x disk drives on the Pro's.
And special I/O cards which only fit in Pros.
All I/O is specific for the PRO. They used a very different I/O-system
than other PDP-11s.
