Talk about bad timing ....

Just a couple of days ago two friends of mine hauled a PDP/8 out to the
dump. Of course, you might not have been able to afford the power to run a
REAL PDP/8.

I never actually worked with an 8, although I did publish a paper on 11M
crash dump analysis. Might be fun to be able to grok a little Macro-11 from
time to time ... hmmm ... wonder if there's a Pro350, or even an old 11/44,
languishing in someone's basement.

Does anybody know where I can get a Harris or Intersil
HD6100, HD6120, IM6100, or IM6120 microprocessor (cmos pdp-8)?

I used to work for Digital, and thought it would be an interresting

project
to homebrew a PDP-8 system. I have a T11 microprocessor chip in the

junbox
someplace, so a PDP-11 system is also a possibility.
