	Sorry, I'm not sure what ad you're referring to? The discussion on CCTalk was prompted by a DEC PDP-11/20 price list from December 1969. (We have also discovered a few other mentions of that 'PDP-11/10'.) The PDP-11/20 in the price list, and the other places the 'PDP-11/10' is mentioned, is definitely the machine we now know as the -11/20.
