1024x768    Full size		Turn your head left! That's the system. I don't know why I couldn't turn the picture...

1024x768    Full size		The TU-56. The faceplate is in a bad state.
1024x768    Full size		Dr. Suess and me looking into the machine - "Where is the core memory?"
1024x768    Full size		The box is quite loaded even without core memory.
1024x768    Full size		The peripherals. Not much dust and dirt for that age!
1024x768    Full size		The TU-56
1024x768    Full size		Dr. Suess and me in front of the system.
1024x768    Full size		I did not get any of the software. TU-56 and RK05 media have to be bulk erased because of partially sensitive data on them.
1024x768    Full size		The CPU front panel. It is in very nice shape. The FP has LEDs instead of bulbs. But it looks like there has been used a kind of bi-pin replacement LED modules, so I can switch back to bulbs without trouble. That ist not very original, but this way I was able to test the system immediately.
1024x768    Full size		RK05 lights and switches. You cannot see that someone exchanged the bulbs with LEDs, too. I don't know yet how complicated it will be to make those changes undone.
1024x768    Full size		The TU-56 still has its bulbs.
1024x768    Full size		The original LAB-8/e bezel. The system is currently equipped with PDP-12 bezels. Those came with the second rack, which is an FPP-12 from a PDP-12 machine. I will probably leave it that way because I don't have another green PDP-8 style bezel for the right side.
1024x768    Full size		TU-56 with a tape on it.
