You are talkin' 'punched tapes', right. DEC Tape?

Sho' nuff.

Hell, boy, if the crinkles in my face didn't give it away, that tape sure would. That and my collection of GEN-YOU-INE 80-column punch cards!

DEC Tape was a roll of magnetic tape that was about 3" in diameter. I can still remember the flapping sound it made when you rewound it right off the take-up spool.

Randomly accessible too, like a disk or drum.

A while back I donated my collection of PDP-11 fanfold paper tape loaders to a local CS museum - RSX-11C/M, RT11, RSTS/E etc and a multi-user RT11, the name of which I forget, it wasn't from DEC.

I vaguely recall using the TSX-Plus operating system on our PDP-11 minis. It was multi-user.

As this discussion has devolved into my pdp-8 is bigger than your pdp-8, could we please take it someplace else? ;-)

Thank you!

I had to search on PDP-11. Oh! Yeah! I remember those!

I think they're now available in Las Angeles for low-income housing. Some disassembly required.
