Hi
It is a very impressive collection you have there. I spot a DG dasher (I
think) and an Informer (I have one of those:

Hmm, I think I have, or used to have, a board for an ND600 terminal.
Moved into rack:
- DLT tape drives
- HP X-Y display
- TEC rackmount terminals
I'm curious about the small thing at the bottom of the shelf next to
this rack. A small box with a keyboard on top, what is that?
And finaly, what is that we se the backside of in picture dsc_0604.jpg,
is it a lisp machine?
Thanks for sharing.
Regards,
Pontus.

A Diser Lilith Modula-2 machine.
Or is it an Eve ?
.... in which case they share the same cabinet.
Seriously rare beast in any case, and of which I would love to see PCB pictures !

AFAIK, they are all Eves.

Now that there is more room for me to work, I might be able to get
those pictures taken in Q1 of 2012.

Yes on both. There are two Dashers, actually. The nicer one I got
from another listmember.

I'd like to see a pic of that if you still have it. The boards *in*
the terminal are just the high voltage drive of the CRT and the
keyboard switch encoder. There really is nothing else in there. In
the rack with the ND812 are some peripheral card cages with a number
of cards in them. I'm hoping that one or more of those cards are the
interface to the terminals; I don't have any docs on the peripheral
boxes that go with the ND812.
I know that Nuclear Data provided graphical output as an option to
their machines. I'm hoping that the peripheral control boards for
these terminals provide some sort of graphics display. If so, it
would be the oldest graphics machine that I have in the collection.

It's an RTTY terminal that uses a composite monitor for a display,
IIRC.

That's the back of an Eve (successor to the Lilith Modula-2 machine).
Now that things are roomier at the new location, I should be able to
get Jos Dreesen some pics of the boards so he can compare them to the
Lilith.
