This is the start of a thread to track known PDP-12s and their state.
@m_thompson is there a year stamp on your S/N plate? Ours has a small 72:
Ohhhhh! I don't think I realized that RCS/RI and RICM were separate entities! It would be great to get the S/N from RCS/RI some time, if possible.That is me on the right playing Skylark, a version of Spacewar! on the PDP-12 at the Retro Computing Society of RI's PDP-12.
Do you know when the machine was originally purchased, by any chance?The Rhode Island Computer Museum has a very late model, S/N696. It was a test system for pneumatic computers. The original operator donated it to the museum. It is usually used to run Spacewar!
It was installed by DEC at Lesona in October 1972.Do you know when the machine was originally purchased, by any chance?
I know of several PDP-12 that I'm not supposed to talk about, so I'm not sure how complete any such list will ever be.
