You can get an emulated 11/23 running 4.2 BSD for $3.00. That's crazy.

Can you tell me where?  With that glaring error I am really

It has to be hyperbole.

No pdp11 ran 4.x, the best you can do is 2.11— which is still being patched and 
maintained; see the pidp-11 mailing list. Probably not $3.00, but $30.00 will 
get you a sytem on a DIP package that will emulate most anything. Spend a bit 
more for a Pi4 or Pi5 if you want to drive a PiDP-11.

But can you still get a real PDP-11 replacement for driving vintage hardware?
