Not my interest, but thought others on the list would like it:
PDP-8/E Simulator, from Bernhard Baehr, emulates the classic Digital
Equipment PDP-8/E minicomputer with software that runs on a Mac. Features
include a "comfortable user interface" for running, writing and debugging
PDP-8 software; viewing and editing memory; breakpoints, single step
execution, and a trace mode; a plug-in API; a programmer's console; a
virtual TSC8-75 board to run the ETOS time sharing OS; an ASR 33 Console
Teletype, ASR 33 Auxiliary Teletype, PC8-E High Speed Paper Tape Reader and
Punch, a RK8-E Disk Cartridge System and more.
PDP-8/E Simulator is free, open-source software for PowerPC and Intel Macs
running Mac OS X 10.4 and up.
Benchmarks show that the PDP-8/E Simulator outperforms a hardware PDP-8/E in
orders of magnitude when running on reasonable current Macs. There are
options to slow down the CPU and the I/O devices to the speed of the real
hardware.
