pdp11 CPU on S100 board?

I have raised the issue of documentation for the Soviet parts with a fellow who posted here recently who lives in Moscow. He will help with getting documenation translated if it can be had. I passed him three auctions with the parts I believe people here could bid on and obtain. He also looked for some information and sent it to me. The latest thread is below: If anyone has some pointers to Soviet documentation which has the information to design a board for these chips, but needs translation, you can post here or reply to me. I will see Pavel can get it and see if it has what would be needed. I didn't add this to the thread of this discussion which is off on the tangent of PDP software legalities, but am rather interested in an S-100 or any variant of this board which can run software, whether it be on an S100 card or other. W/o more information than I've seen I don't think there is much one can do with the chips. The systems for sale would be a better bet.. I also am pasting the three chips I found on ebay with links to them. Many thanks to Pavel for looking into this. Jim Stephens Hello, Jim. Of course, I'll do what I can. 1). I am not too good in PDP systems, but I know at least one good specialist. 2). Excuse me, I do not know, what is S100. Is it important for searching the information? 3). I am afraid, that all documentation would be in Russian. At least I have never seen soviet documentation in English. 4). Have you got a list of particular questions? I mean the list of chips in your interest. 5). Here is soviet small PDP machines: A).
