   Hi, thanks. You can choose language at the top right. Never heard of decideact before, and I'm not sure we are in the same spare. Please point me to where you believe there are missing chunks, and I will correct it ASAP.

    Great. I can see a whole new market for these kind of retro machines. As I never used a PDP-11, this however doesn't have the same kind of nostalgia for me. Is anybody doing anything like this for IBM mainframes?

    Very nice. However, it took a moment to realise that you cannot drag objects to the canvas but have to click on them first. Then you can move them around.

    Also in Sweden the university hospital of Karolinska Institute had to drop the domain kus.se and go with karolinska.se as they got too many visitors from other countries. In Danish and other languages kusse means vagina. https://
