Hi all,
I'm cooking up a new interpreter for the PDP 8. It uses a C like language
(C-) and is really a project to get my head round the PDP 8 architecture.
Note its an interpreter not compiler :-)
I have recently got my hands on a wonderful working PDP 8/a, but it would
be nice to have some actual storage e.g. a disk drive or tape of some kind.
I'm not a fan of using tape emulators etc, although thats all I have at the
moment. Happy to pay the going rate and will travel to collect. I'm in the
UK - so can do anywhere in the UK or Netherlands/Germany/France etc.
I would also like to have a go with the FPP8/A which is a floating point
option on the 8/A. If anyone has one for sale or would be prepared to do
medium term loan that would be a great help.
More details on the project once its in a workable form and I've set up a
website or whatever
Thanks
Ian
