PDP

In the '60s and '70s before it developed the VAX minicomputer, Digital Equipment Corporation sold and maintained several lines of minicomputers under the PDP label. The best-known families in the PDP line were the PDP-10 and PDP-11 (the latter of which was the direct predecessor of the VAX line). If anyone claims to have cut their teeth on a PDP-10, the correct response is to look suitably impressed.
