[Simh] Folks who have old DECUS tapes... look for something for me?

[Johnny Billquist]

I have most, if not all, RSX symposium tapes.
I think I have a few RT-11 tapes as well.

But I got some of them from Tim Shoppa a long time ago. And he has them 
on trailing-edge as well. There you'll find both the RSX and RT-11 tapes 
as well as a bunch of PDP-10 stuff.
