Hi Paul,
Really? I'd like to get a hold of PDF copies of the Documentation. Do you have a good source for DEC literature, datasheets on these machines?
What are the features of the various versions you mentioned? I used a PDP8/E back in high school in 1976 - 1978. Until tonight, I never knew the processor was an 8008-1 cpu. I've been studying that chip a little lately.
I'm just now getting into the retro bug myself where DEC PDP equipment is concerned. I'd like to get a well-equipped system, but I hesitate to ask the price for the various pieces. :P I've been thinking of finding a PDP8 emulated in modern hardware as an alternative. Please keep me posted on your findings. I would greatly appreciate it very much. Thanks in advance.

Hi Martin,
I have extra As, Es, Fs, and Ms, with most of the options, but don't have my test beds set up yet.
