The second haul

Now I have all my PDP8s "at home". The haul is complete.
This gallery shows a few impressions from the second cabinet which had to be returned to the previous owner because he wants to use it as a storage for tools and other material. I'm glad to have the computer removed :-)

One level up

1024x768    Full size		The second cabinet before dismantling.
1024x768    Full size		Whole cabinet from the side.
1024x768    Full size		The PDP8/L in the cabinet.
1024x768    Full size		Here you see the second 800bpi tape drive. I don't think that I will be able to restore these two devices. They look really awful. And what should I do with them? I don't have use for these tapes on the small PDP8/L without operation system. Perhaps I should think about throwing it away.
1024x768    Full size		The controller in the rack. The boring detail photos have been made for me to remember connections etc.

1024x768    Full size		A look from behind. You can see the rusty cover of the 8/L. Today (30.3.) I will take a look inside.

1024x768    Full size		These Flip Chip modules look better after a hachti-wash... Remembers me to put the module-wash-images online....! :-)
