  By far the DEC PDP-11 family.  If I recall correctly, the first
model (the pdp11/20) first shipped in 1970, and the last (the pdp11/93
and pdp11/94) were discontinued around 1997 or so.

  The VAX isn't doing too bad either...introduced in '77 ('78?) and
still supported until the end of this year, I believe.
