Not sure how meaningful sound is. In general, I would not be able to
tell one computer from another. The noise normally comes from lots of
fans, and they sound the same no matter which computer they are in.
Ping me if you are near Uppsala at the end of July, beginning of August,
and I can take you to a couple of big machines running (PDP-11/70 and
VAX-8650).

Hello,
I have an idea that may be slightly out of the scope of the SIMH
simulator. However, adding this would make an already great simulator
provide a super fantastic simulated experience.
The idea is to make 3D scans and record sounds from old computers. No,
I'm not really saying SIMH should include this. But it would be a great
complement to the historical data we have, which is mostly text
documents and photos.
I can't do this myself. If someone were to, say, have collection or
even a museum with functional computers, that would be a good starting
point.
