Thank you to everyone for your replies.

When Elliot mentioned how he got started in the DEC world, I was
curious how everyone else got started as well.

There certainly was more variety back then. I never touched a DEC
system until my first permanent job, but before then I had already
used a Honeywell mainframe and a Sperry (originally Univac) miniframe
as a secondary school student (early 1980s) and a MPE machine in a
summer job.

Thanks once again everyone.

Simon.
