You'll get a laugh out of this... My original system used a PDP-11/40 with
a whopping 10 MB of hard disk. I still have my PDP10 programming manual. Jeez, I --AM-- OLD!:-) Yes; Bob had a great idea. I suspect it will take 30 years (from now) to do this properly, get all the birdies out; get a nice patch of land in Arizona or Utah; build the system;find ET's; and so on. Pioneering doesn't seem like that to contemporaries. We all need lasik! 73, Chip N1IR |

"I still have my PDP 10 programming manual." As I recall from circa 1970, the Digital Equipment tiny-biny was the programmable data processor, PDP 8. I remember Schlumberger having in its Houston Headquarters a PDP 10, The PDP 10 was a rather large number cruncher which could be used for scientific purposes as well as for business applications. I think they ran both FORTRAN and COBOL. My employer tried Raytheon 704`s for minicomputers, then switched to Digital Equipment VAX machines. They worked well.
