I have a friend who teaches at a large university and he has to use Dropbox to 
share files out to students and where students can drop files.  A public 
folder, essentially. 

He would love to drop Dropbox for iCloud Drive, but he doesn't want to have to 
manage email for file sharing.  I don't blame him given how search in iOS Mail 
is not fine-grained enough.  That said, he's replaced his PC laptop with an 
iPad as his main device.

PDP-11? I remember helping two others write a COMMON LISP interpreter in 
Assembler for PDP-11 back in the mid 1980's. That was fun:-)
