I worked on multiple Honeywell machines the last being the 8200 and 9600 half and full bit word, as an operator and programmer. the best was the media conversion machines which printed the end results and also played chess and naughts and crosses.
I think it was an LGP30 and its floating point truncation that started the whole chaos theory thing when Edward Lorenz tried to model systems of DE's for weather systems on one. Magnetic drum storage?
First assembly language program I wrote was for DDP-516. My model had toggle switches. I still remember the 17 steps to activate a paper tape reader to load the boot file! My lab used these to test EW equipment in real time.
ليست هده تكنويت اختلطت باحواش وبالهيت وجدبا المتعارف على تكنويت القوة والتعبير برقصات تدعوا للحرية من القيود اي الاغلال وهي بالقراقب للغة السلاسل وارتفاع نحو الأعلى ورجلين مفتوحين ترمز فك القيد ولقنبري هو رمز السفينة التي نقلت الإنسان الأفريقي إلى عبوديتهم بأمريكا وهناك طهرت موسيقى الجاز وغيرها ليلتقي الأخوة وهم جسدوا تاريخهم الماساوي هده هي تكنويت اما يشاهد فهو تطاول على ارت تقافي وستغلاله
Still considered one of the finest letterpresses ever made. It's a pity they don't make them anymore. They were made virtually unchanged into the early 1990s.
Really cool, thanks for sharing. Isn't this the same system 316 Neiman Marcus sold as the Honeywell Kitchen computer in '69 (with built in cutting board)?
Yes, but mine comes in the standard housing, while the „Kitchen Computer“ is built into a fancy space age desk something. It also shows up in the H316 manual as „pedestal version“ without any mention of a kitchen.
