#dpd-11

Family portrait of the relatives who never forget what uptime means...

PDP-11/70 // the heavyweight. front panel like a tiny city at night. blinkenlights that feel weirdly calming, like watching rain on a window.

PDP-11/44 // the reliable one. the “yeah, i’ll just do the job” energy. quietly competent.

VAX 4000-705A // the slightly newer sibling who still carries that machine-room aura in its bones.

Not retro decor. not props... actual history that still boots, still clicks, still hums, still gets warm in the way modern computers refuse to. There’s something comforting about hardware that has presence.
