How fast could you re-enter the boot code into a PDP-11?



That depends on how big your boots were. I made sure a lot of them
would never boot again, and sold the leftovers. They were from leased
CAD systems that were being retired, and had to go through certified
destruction, but were were allowed to sell lots of the parts. I still
have a pair of aluminum racks from the LSI versions that were used to
process CATV bills.
