In 1973 Whirlwind and CTSS died; PDP-1 was devastated but accepting of their fates, and it had little permanent impact on her optimistic outlook. Even as her usefulness was eclipsed by more powerful computer-tans, she remained a beloved figure and stepped into a comfortable retirement. A honourary member of the Bintenji Renmei, she chooses to live separate from the group; instead, residing in a community of vintage computers in California. She often visits her fellow DEC-tans and continues to hunt for SAGE, in hopes of reuniting her entire family. | In 1973 Whirlwind and CTSS died; PDP-1 was devastated but accepting of their fates, and it had little permanent impact on her optimistic outlook.
