If you're one of those people who wants a PDP-8 but can't find one, don't despair - you can always build your own! The SBC6120 is a complete PDP-8 built around the venerable Harris HD6120 CPU and modern programmable logic devices. All parts used except the 6120 are contemporary, easily available devices. The entire system fits on a PC board 6.2" by 4.2" and has approximately the same footprint as a 3.5" hard disk. The SBC6120 has 64KW RAM, 32KW EPROM, a true KL8/E compatible console terminal interface, and a standard IDE/ATA disk interface. OS/8 device handlers are available for IDE interface, and the system will run standard OS/8 V3D. There's even an expansion bus so you can design and build your own daughter cards to plug into it. To find out more, visit the SBC6120 web page at http://www.SpareTimeGizmos.com/Hardware/SBC6120-2.htm Last fall, a group of about 30 people got together to order parts and PC boards for the SBC6120, and the results were better than I ever hoped. So far as I know, every one who assembled their SBC6120 got it working (a few people still have theirs on the shelf, unassembled, I'm afraid!). Some people even designed peripherals for it, such as Jim Kearney's cool I/O board which allows you to use a standard VGA monitor and PS/2 keyboard as a VT-52 substitute. http://www.jkearney.com/sbc6120/iob6120.htm And perhaps the best of all, we're now beta testing a real lights and switches front panel for the SBC6120. Visit http://www.sparetimegizmos.com/Hardware/SBC6120_Front_Panel.htm for a preview! Even now I still get enough inquiries about the SBC6120 that I have decided to purchase another run of PC boards and 6120 CPU chips. There's a fully assembled unit available on eBay now, http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2750838322 and Spare Time Gizmos is now selling bare PC boards, two different partial kits, and a complete kit at http://www.sparetimegizmos.com/Hardware/SBC6120_Orders.htm If you wanted to have your own PDP-8, then here's your chance!
