<dog-mansion, but unless someone offered me a PDP-11 with a 64-bit data bus <that was made with modern chip manufacturing techniques and had a decent <user interface & peripherals, I'd still choose a PC over a PDP-11. The 32bit version is called a vax! I'll take a vax over a PC anyday. Come to mention it I have 6 Vaxen and 4 operating qbus pdp-11s.
