Interesting point. IIRC, the Macintosh PDP-8/e emulator has an option to run
at native speeds, however, I don't think any of the PDP-11 emulators do. Of
course other than clock skew that I've seen, the faster the PDP-11 the better
:^) Same thing goes for the PDP-10, the faster the better (and on at least
the simh PDP-10 emulator the clock skew problem has been solved).

Whoa, that's one beat-up badboy you got there.
Does it run?

Hi - new to this list and wondered if anyone could point me in the direction of likely sources for user and/or (preferably) technical docs/manuals for HP7978A reel-to-reel tape drive? I have tried Monterey Bay but unfortunately no success).
Many thanks in advance.

Hi there. This is not on-topic for the list, since it's a newer RISC
model, but if there is anybody listening who knows aught about AS/400 who
wouldn't mind giving me a hand with this 9406 I just bought from a
dot-gone auction, I could use some help getting it set up and checked out.
Help local to the Seattle area would be a bonus.
Contact me off list if I can pick your brain. Thanks!
ok

Quick, probably quite stupid, question... but can anyone tell me what
exactly teh differences are between teh various "flavours" of Apple II?
I.e. the IIe, IIc, IIee, IIcp etc?
Cheers!

There is currently a project underway to do an FPGA implemenation of a
PDP-10 (I forget which CPU). The person working on this seems to be making
fairly good progress.

Well Shaun, it is this way. Since we crossed the pond to the colonies, we
have
undergone a genetic mutation with regards to out 'packrat' genes. We will
haul
home just about anything and everything, then the genes kick in and we just
can't seem to part with it. So it becomes part of the collection. :^))
Wife's point of view :((

Does anyone know what Silicon Graphics systems were featured in Jurassic
Park (the first one)? I can't find my copy of the movie, I think my 8
year old has hidden it.

Not off the top of my head, the info is in the Apple ][ FAQ, but I've no
idea where you can find it these days.
