9th floor map
Noel, we're interested in hearing your comments about the floor plan. Larsbrinkhoff (talk) And you already gave some, thanks!
- I wasn't there during the CTSS/Multics era, but later on there was still a huge I-beam running along the floor where '1401/DM PDP-6' is on this map, and I was told that that had been installed to hold the Multics (or CTSS, I forget which) tape drives (or maybe drum). So it may have been all through that end. It shouldn't be hard to find out.
- Also, LISP machines were scattered all over the floor; the prototype CADR, along with the CONS machine and the chess machine (CHEOPS) was in one of 904-906 (I forget which); others were down near AI. Jnc (talk) 22:01, 25 January 2018 (CET)
Where did the four KS10 machines go? Larsbrinkhoff (talk)
- Where the ML KA used to be.
- Speaking of the KS10's, I wish I could find a copy of the letter I wrote for Dave Clark to sign, asking for the donation from DEC. I looked on the MIT-CSR machine (whose filesystem I recently recovered), but alas, not there. It must have been on one of the other machines (XX, or one of the ITS's).
