Yes, Cooper still has their '45 going strong, but with V6. I
learned on that machine during my undergrad years there (1977-81). They
added a 160 Mb fuji since I left, but still boot off the 2 RK-05's they had
when I got there (yup, 5 Mb total disk space).
Isn't it amazing how 32 people can do real work on a machine with
256K of core (I think they finally upgraded to MOS ram) and a kernal that
only takes up about 20K?
