It can't be too unobtainable, since I got a copy. It's not the KLH
simulator, if that's what you're thinking. It's Stu Grossman's kx10.
How does it model disks etc?
It simulates RP06 drives attached to an RH20 massbus channel, as would
be configured on a DECsystem-109x or a KL10-based DECSYSTEM-20.
It also simulates an NI20 (or is it NIA20? I've seen it both ways.)
Ethernet interface, using the BPF to assign a separate Ethernet MAC
address. It's nice being able to telnet into TOPS-20 again.
I haven't been in touch with Stu for a while; I don't know whether he
is getting any closer to releasing it.
Cheers,
