We have a pdp 11/05 and PDP 8e at kennett classic (kennettclassic.com). BIll On Mon, Mar 14, 2022 at 8:48 PM Michael Casadevall via vcf-midatlantic < vcf-midatlantic@lists.vcfed.org> wrote:
Hey all, I'm curious if anyone knows if there are museums on the east coast (and ideally close to New Jersey) that have working PDP machines, and may allow some time working with them. I've been wanting to do a video on some of the PDP series machines, and especially some of the other operating systems beside UNIX such as RT-11. I know it's possible to emulate most of these in SIMH, but I'd prefer to at least be able to show the real hardware in action.
Ideally, I'm looking for time on a PDP-11, and a PDP-8, but I'd mostly like to capture these minicomputers running for real, including loading tape, and more if possible. Figure this was the best place to ask on potential leads. For those who don't know me, I'm NCommander at YouTube, and I've been at the last few VCF events.
Hope someone can point me in the right direction, ~ NCommander
