luck with BT granting use of cyber 70 class software for
non-commercial use. Right now there is no generally available software
other than Chippewa to run on it.
Golly, COS was old when I was fooling with the things. It mostly
survived in relics like EDITSYM for COSY source libraries.
Purdue had their own version of MACE for the 6500; I wonder if it
exists anywhere? If so, it might make an adequate substitute for
SCOPE/KRONOS/NOSBE/NOS as something to run that's later than COS.
I wonder if LRL still has the 6000 code for Octopus. Or if it's
still classified. But then, that's nothing like anything that ever
came out of Arden Hills.
