I was searching through ebay for some PDP-8/e stuff to
show to someone and I
stumbled across this:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/DL-Lesney-Matchbox-Series-Daimler-Bus-Digital-PDP-8…
I have no idea what I have just discovered...
I have one of those. It's just what it appears to be. About 3 inches long, and
a little red
toy bus with the DEC logo and "PDP-8/E OMNIBUST" on each side.
I keep it as a bit of PDP-8 bric-a-brac, atop my (not yet working) FPGA
implementation of
the PDP-8/I (which I built in an oak box around an original 8/I front panel).
Right behind it I have a DEC building block like the ones pictured in the
recently ended eBay
auction 290912101738.
(No association with the seller in either of the mentioned auctions.)
