I got to see that DG just after he picked it up in Akron. He stopped by the Large Scale
Systems Museum in New Kensington PA and we gave it a look over and also discussed the docs
he got with it and what to tackle first.
Now if only it had come with some of those cool blue/green DG terminals :)
I still remover the day he sat down in front of the HP 2116B, he had never touched a
blinking light front panel, he asked if Dave or I minded if he erased the program in
memory, we said no, he powered it on and 2 min later was reading the programming docs for
it and wrote a quick blinking lights program in like 15 min.
Connor is a good guy!
Connor is a member of our user group here in the
Mid-Atlantic. He's
been learning at an astonishingly quick rate!
He's been a member on this list for quite some time, and is a regular on the evening
crew of the #classiccmp irc channel as well.
He was working on a DG Nova 3 before the Z machine arrived, hope he gets back to it as
well :)
