These are
general purpose core that can be used in more than just the
Burroughs minis they came from. ?I know for example that a rack like this
could be used with an S-100 computer or 8008 system.
What Burroughs minis?
6000 series I assume, specifically I was told these came from a
prototype system (?) from the early 1970's, and were then surplused
after light use. I don't have confirmation on that. They could be
used in a PDP 11/45 (?), IBM 3179, and I know first-hand that they
can be adapted for use in a microprocessor system as others of this
same model were used in a 8008 system (I think) homebrew project or
two that I have seen. Late core-era adaptable memory. If I get more
info I will let you know.
I still have at least one partial rack available if anyone is
interested contact me directly.
