ok here starts the registry !
Have started on for classic 8 and one for 8S

Do we want the list to be ordered by S/N or owner? ( I vote for S/N)
Of course if we also have things an excel work sheet we can sort in
any way we wish.

It's owned by another collector on this list. I suspect they'll add
their name and 8S S/N here ;)

Snip.....
Mine in serial number 270. It's the one from David Larson listed as
serial number 303 (that number is the backplane logic number)
Rack Mount, non-original power supply (though the correct DEC supply,
just not the system's original one). I had it fully running,
there's a youtube video of it, but it now has a memory select logic
problem. I'll get to it again someday....

John Wilson has a PDP-8/S in storage, unknown serial #, needs restoration.
He got it in Michigan about 20 years ago.
