DEC had a group called "Traditional Products" that supported the PDP11 (as well as the PDP8) long after those systems were EOL. I interviewed over at USA Today when they first opened - they were using Atex. I thought it was very cool compared to what we were running which was a combination of a lot of home grown code with some Datalogics functions we licensed.
