Hmm, I wonder if they can do something usefull on their DECnet. I toyed myself with creating some kinda of network for fun, but after few considerations I decided to use IP.

IP is well established protocol that can run on a lot of even old platforms thanks to people porting IP stack to them.

Please add spaces between '|' and links. It will look better imo.

Oh, here seems to be a typo in the paper: one-byte exponent ranging from -218 to +127

This should be -128 to +127.

Too bad Galaxial never has been finished. It seems abandomned project. It looks absolutly gorgeous. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o20NpIg_MCg
