Fabritek

I'm curious about the location of "Fabritek" which would be the moby memory, right?

According to this floor plan the AI PDP-6 & 10 was in room 921 to the right. And MC was somewhere in the space to the left (replacing the 645), correct? So was the moby memory moved away from AI, closer to MC? Larsbrinkhoff (talk) 19:02, 12 April 2021 (CEST)

Yes. A wall, parallel to the building's long axis, was built roughly between the two pillars above where it says '1401' in red. MC was in the space between the group of 4 pillars; in my MC diagram, the CPU was at the bottom. (Offices were built all around the outer wall, from 936 to 904.
No, the Fabritek 'moby' memory was over next to the AI CPU, and never moved. What happened was I got confused, and made a mistake in my MC diagram, and labelled MC's new memory as 'Fabritek', when it was probably something different, maybe ARM, maybe an ARM10? I've fixed the diagram. Jnc (talk) 23:18, 12 April 2021 (CEST)
