I have run TSX+ since the early 80's. I developed a few handlers to
do graphics on a Peritek VRG-Q and also for data acquisition.
Nothing like like an J-11, 4Mb and a hard disk to make a excellent
personal workstation back then. RXV21's were not a problem as TSX+
(>v6 I think) could automatically low buffer for them as required.

So I got the RX02 drive up and going with the RXV11 controller. Man
it's interesting to hear those old disks *click*. Both work (which is
good) and now I'm starting to look through my old disks.
Interesting issue: Many of my disks are formatted RX02. So I need to
dig out my RXV21 controller from some box around here and see if that
works. I never liked the RXV21: It's only 18 bits, does DMA, and is
quite weird in a 4mb pdp11. But I would like to get this data off.
I also uncovered my old TSX disks. I have TSX+ 6.5, 6.4, and TSX
5.something here on double sided RX02 disks. Looks like my support
contract ran out in 1991, I'll have to see about renewing that....
Anyone here still running TSX, or did everyone go to RSX11M+?
