I loved both RT-11 and TSX+. The DEC guys kept saying we needed large VAX's
to do what wer were already doing every day on an 11/23.  :-)

Eventually, because PC "C" compilers/debuggers were better and cheaper, we
ported our code to PC--else we might still be running on our good old
PDP-11.

TSX+?
A time sharing extension of RT11 on PDP11's.
Super product, very efficient.
We did a lot of PDP11 multi terminal medical billing systems with it.
S and H is till around I believe.
