A Blast from the Past ... Paul Allen Style

  • Artículo
A resource for computer history. PDP Planet is a portal into the Paul Allen collection of Digital Equipment Corporation mainframes and minicomputers, where pride of place is given to two PDP-10 systems (a 2065 running the Tops-10 operating system, and a 1090 scheduled to be brought up later this year). In addition to these, the collection houses a number of PDP-11 and PDP-8 minicomputers and a PDP-10 clone, the XKL Toad-1 System running the TOPS-20 operating system. The collection also contains image files for a great deal of software for DEC computers, and a large library of manuals which will be scanned and put on-line over the coming months. These will be available through the PDP Planet Web site, as will descriptions of the work done in restoring the hardware to working condition, and recommendations for how others can leverage our restoration work for their own projects.
