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)
