It's kind of interesting to read these sorts of news articles. You would have thought they would have replaced these relics long ago. I wonder if the PDP-11's used Macro-11 like the VAX-11s. I remember learning to program on a VAX/11-750 in high school. My first real exposure to "real" computers. Up until then I only used TRS-80's. Thanks for the flashback and making me feel old!

Now, the game fails to work unless you adjust your system's clock. What is Epic's response? 'We're working on it.'"
