Here is what I came up with: http://www.chdickman.com/pdp8/DECcolors/ I think I posted this already. How have you been doing your color matching? Have you published a color list for the panels you have made? I am thinking about color matching for switch handles for example that are in the same colors. Some enduring standard translation for the colors would be great to have available in the future. I never imagined how slippery color was until I tried to do the color matching from the DEC standards. I had to meet Munsell, Ostwald and the CHM (Color Harmony Manual, not the Computer History Museum), before I was done. And Pantone seems to be the Microsoft of color. -chuck
