PDP Planet is a portal into the Paul
Allen collection of Digital Equipment Corporation mainframes and
minicomputers, where pride of place is given to two
PDP-10 systems (a 2065 running the
Tops-10 operating system, and a 1090 scheduled to be
brought up later this year). In addition to these, the collection houses a
number of PDP-11 and PDP-8 minicomputers and a
PDP-10 clone, the XKL Toad-1 System running the TOPS-20 operating
system.
The collection also contains image files for a great deal of software for
DEC computers, and a large library of manuals which will be scanned and put
on-line over the coming months. These will be available through the PDP
Planet Web site, as will descriptions of the work done in restoring the
hardware to working condition, and recommendations for how others can
leverage our restoration work for their own projects.
