If you would like to re/experience APL, four classic implementations are
available on five machines running at the Nostalgic Computing Center
<http://www.nostalgiccomputing.org>:

   - APL 2 (aka APLUM) on the CDC Cyber 865 and Cyber 175 NOS 2 systems
   - APLSF on the PDP-10 TOPS-20 system
   - APL-11 on the PDP-11 RSX-11M-Plus system
   - APL/Z on the Z80 CP/M system

The NCC is also planning to install APL\360 on its IBM 4381 VM/CMS system,
per instructions recently posted on the Hercules forum.

cheers,
Kevin
