It doesn't sound fresh at all.

It sounds like McDonald's going back to the way it used to operate.

I knew a guy who used to repair the PDP-11's under the counters that ran each restaurant. He said the #1 failure mode was soda spilled in the machines.

I have a very hard time believing every McDonalds once had their own PDP-11. Despite being called “minicomputers” those things were huge!
