Subject: Re: Front Panel Update
Hi
Its a full size 8/e front panel.
Its made to be a replacement for damaged front panels on real PDP8/e's I
doubt it would fit anything else.
There is a possibility of a lights and switches panel to go with it if we can
solve the problem of the lack of the lever operated switches that are a
feature of the PDP8
However its a case of if you don't have an 8/e now or are building one then
this panel is not for you.
