Amazing. I don't know what any of those acronyms mean.
I did not look at all of them but I do know what many of them mean
PDP-## PDP is the name of a computer company so that's a computer
(As an example)
I first got "online" in 1977.. though it was not ARPA net it was a closed network.. NO dial up modems.. All hard wired dedicated lines ASR 31 Teletype terminals for most of the net though I had a nice IBM high speed I could use as well and later a Teletype Dataspeed 40 and then a Racal-Milgo, then PC's with Racal-Milgo cards, then finally PC's with software, All Dedicated lines though, not "internet".
That's how long I've been doing this stuff.
