For my own morbid curiosity, and because it came up on
another mailing
list I'm on [1], what machines commercially avaialble
were sign magnitude
and one's complement?
A table of what computers had what numeric representation
is one of those things
that should have been done, but never has. Now that
bitsavers has a reasonable collection
of technical/programming manuals, it might even be possible.
http://quadibloc.com/comp/cpint.htm
has some information, but it isn't really in any sort of
tabular form.
AFAIK, the PDP-1 was the only DEC 1's compliment machine
that shipped.
