That would be useful, I could use the VAX as a gateway to the pdp-11.
Unfortunately, it won't boot from DECnet over the serial port (I've
just tried) although it claims it can boot from DECnet over Ethernet

quite a collection you have there, though, why do you have the A1200 hard
drive in the acellerator bay?
I have an SGI box and a sun box looking for a home if you want to expand the
collection... also an HP9000, but it's a big um HUGE and power hungry.

The project aims to make Glasgow a more sustainable city through the
creation of a locally focused web based Green Map and a series of

Apologies I meant PDP-11/53 (actually very similar)

The 8088 was the 16 bit chip, indeed, but it had an 8 bit adress bus.
The 8086 was superior to the '88 because it was a true 16bit cpu,
incorporating a 16bit address bus. The 8087 complements it to provide real

I've just dug out a 486DX4 - I'll take it to the next meeting if I manage to
be there. Might be able to find a 386/20 somewhere. I should also have a
8086+8087 (not 8088... the real 16 bit version) but I can'

Hey Georgia,
Don't count out the 8088 and 80186, You can find an 88 in IBM ATs
(often recycled as electric gate controllers) and the 186 was
primarily used in printers. Find a printer from the mid-80's you've
probably found a 186.
