Not "really" meant to be a computer, but I have a
working HP2644A (with DC100a tapes) that uses an 8008
microprocessor (the first thing HP made with an
"outside" CPU, I think). I went nuts on it and
rebuilt the moldy CRT. The only other one I know of is
at the Univ of Stuttgart museum. You can hack this
terminal into playing pong on the 8008. Classic
computers need classic peripherals - that's why I've
been working on paper tape readers.
