fuzzball

A DEC LSI-11 running a particular suite of homebrewed

software written by Dave Mills and assorted co-conspirators,

used in the early 1980s for Internet protocol testbedding

and experimentation. These were used as NSFnet backbone

sites in its early 56KB-line days. A few were still active on

the Internet in early 1991, doing odd jobs such as network

time service.
