The System Console from the DEC PDP-10 KA-10 System #105 at
BOCES-LIRICS was recently donated to the RICM.
We are considering mounting a System-on-a-Chip to the back of the
console and making it a "live" PDP-10.
For more information on the console see:

Interesting..
I personally spent a fair amount of time in front of that console when
it was in Dix Hills which
is actually Suffolk county LI. It was in the same building I was taking
classes in along with
two Honeywell systems. That would be around 1971ish. Sweet machine we
had maybe
300 users (terminals) all on dial in lines from both Nassau and Suffolk
counties
(about 70% of the LI landmass).
Wonder what happened of Jerry Damm and a few others around then.

Oh. That brings back memories. I used BOCES-NCODE in high school.
Good luck with the system-on-a-chip mod

Very nice. It is smaller than I have imagined. Bruce Maier is excellent
for scale :)
