But *more* interesting would be "Who is still using a PDP-10 and where is it located?" (My best guess would be a museum. :-) Or even "Why???" Porting GCC to it would be cool - but who is doing it and why? Maybe we can get a port of GCC to the IBM 1401 while we're at it? The architecture was pretty neat and was possibly responsible for the "look and feel" of a lot of other systems. The MS-DOS window always reminded me of the look and feel of TOPS-10. You think someone involved with that used to work with a DEC 10?
