My German Is not that good but the gist of it is that it's a controller
for a CNC drill.
The 8/f is an Irish made one from the Galway plant. (Whilst working at
DEC I visited Galway on a regular basis).
I'm a bit confused as to where it is. The only Penzing I know is in
Austria near Vienna.
If it was northern Germany I'd go and get it. The system unit might be
the basis for building up a PDP 8 system.
Oh well one day I'll get a PDP-8 from somewhere. I'm sure that 10,000 +
where made. Of those probably 3,000 where UK/European voltage models.

Got an email today, that you can get a complete pdp8/f on ebay.
It is located in Germany.
Does not mention how much memory it got but seams to be complete with
paper tape reader and an atari 140ST as console.

I don't have any connection to the seller.
And I don't have any more free space for another pdp8 of this era.
