Looking for old microprocessors
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. |
No cheating! If you're going to homebrew a PDP-8, you have to build it out
of discrete TTL. 73, Dave, AA6YQ Data General, 1972 - 1981 Designer of the Nova 2, Nova 3, MP200, and microEclipse CPUs, as well as some parts of FHP and EGO "kenneth scharf" wrote in message ...

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. ...

(Admittedly, my only source is Kidder's book.) |

You do realize that there are people who collect these machines, and have been known to pay REAL MONEY for them, don't you??? |
