The PDP16 had a constants card circa 1972 or so. The constants card was
basically cores with hand threaded wire done by the customer, and acted
like a ROM. I don't remember the capacity, but IIRC it was about 16 bytes.
Did the PDP14 (or any machine of that era) ever use
hand-threaded (by the
end user) core boards as ROM?
tnx.
