I was looking around my box of old boards and
found a core memory set I've had since about
'84.
The handles also has "W025" on them.
Is this a PDP-8 board, and was it an OEM part
supplied to DEC or from DEC?
Sound like a PDP-8/I Core stack. I think it was an OEM part supplied by
digital. They seemed to use several different manufactures. The one I
have in front of me is Core Memories LTD Dublin Ireland.
8/I picture with core modules visible (core is blocks with wire bundles
leading to white handles on top left).
