The photographs have a couple of curiousities in them. Firstly,
they say
that the PDP8 line started in 1965 (which sounds aout right), but the
picture is of a much later (early 70's) PDP8/e (which uses TTL ICs,
not
discrete transistors).
1970, yes. There aren't many other models around to photograph,
though, comparatively speaking.
