PDP-10 user?

I had left MAC out, since they were CTSS and Multics, and I thought maybe the AI Lab left Project MAC before they got their -10, but I guess not. "In 1970, the MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory split off, and in 1975 most of the remnants organized themselves into the MIT Laboratory for Computer Science." And, looking at the timeline in Incompatible Timesharing System:

  • 1969 - Ported to KA10 [AI, and before the split]
  • 1970 - Second KA10 at Dynamic Modeling group [later LCS; this was before LCS was set up]
  • 1972 - Third KA10 at Mathlab group [ditto]

So I guess Project MAC qualifies. Jnc (talk) 12:28, 10 January 2024 (CET)
