75 pre-dates both Gilbert and myself, I believe but there certainly
was a PDP 11/45 here in the late 70's. I'm not sure what whether the
original 11/45 was around in 75. Might just have been someone who was
interested but didn't have hardware yet. Gilbert, do you know if Doug
was active with Unix at that time?
