As an owner of Oscar's PiDP-8 and PiDP-11, I *need* a PiDP-10!!! Oscar, the community he has created, and the SIMH community for these operating systems and legacy disk/tape/media images are truly legend!
Oscar has done an amazing job of bringing these replicas to the community - the simh integration with the front panel lights and switches adds a real sense of realism to each of the PDP8 / 11 / 10's and with simh you get to play with the original operating systems warts and all !
Watching this video while playing on my PiDP-8/i, sweet! My PiDP-11/70 is serial number less than 10 (a beta kit). One of the 50 beta PiDP-10s will arrive on my doorstep on Saturday. Life is good.
The Whirlwind was the first computer to use magnetic core memory. As your guest says, it was the basis for the SAGE system's famous AN/FSQ-7 computers, the physically largest computers ever built.
