My copy of "PiDP-10, a mainframe in my living room"  arrived today from Amazon.  

I am familiar enough with the PDP-11 having looked after a couple in the 1980s (RSX-11M) but I'm not at all familiar with the PDP-10 or it's operating systems.  This book is just what the doctor ordered; it will help me get a lot more out of my PiDP-10.  

It may just be me, but the PiDP-10 is a steeper learning curve.   That's not to say I wouldn't welcome a similar book for the PiDP-11 and PiDP-8.   Andrew's book makes the PiDP-10 feel far more accessible, which has to be a very good thing.

Overall, there is some amazing work being done by Andrew, Oscar and many others.  Great work, and thank you all!!.
