Good idea! That would be more fun, and more

of those programmable ICs. Has anyone given much serious thought to
this? It seems that we could purchase large quantities of surplus
small signal transistors very inexpensively. Ok, we'd have to make
some changes, such as using slilcon rather than germanium... but, that
should be a minor issue.
You can get new transistors in bulk cheap too.
PMBTH10 's are 9 cents each. 1 GHZ NPN switching transistor.
Beef up your classic PDP-8 with this transistor. :)
