For those intersted in DEC equipment and one aspect of their their usage (UK 
I'm afraid)
Details of a now defunct Military installation that used various DEC 
computers has recently gone online.
These documents from about 1980 show PDP 11/10's and 11/40's used for jet 
engine research and how they were utilised.
I was the tech involved in the installation of the 11/40 in the mid 1970's, 
and maintenance at that time of the PDP7, SDS9300 and Elliot 803B systems. I 
also lists an ICL1904s running George Mk 8.64.

It was all decomissioned in 2002, who knows where all the kit went but the 
urban explorer forums say it has all gone. Typical UK government, we dont 
want it so nobody can have it.
