  1. Sean Haas @adventofcomputing has a new podcast episode out - the first of three about the #DEC #PDP11. In the first episode, he covers the evolution of the design of the PDP-11, from its orthogonal instruction set to the innovation of #Unibus.

    Part two will cover #LSI11 and the third will discuss applications and derivatives of these chips.

    Subscriber-only for now: patreon.com/posts/episode-163-

    ...but it'll show up on the open RSS feed soon enough: adventofcomputing.com

    Sean's not active on the Fediverse but his output is consistently fresh and interesting - you never get the old regurgitated stories. He ought to get more attention.

  6. PDP-11 factory in Galway. Note the long ribbon running across the racks - it's the #UNIBUS - main system bus! Asynchronous design, so no timing limitations, just transmission ones. [From FB/PDP-11]

  12. CW: striving to explain a unibus joke

    I notice the address bus is 2 bits wider than the databus...

    ... and I notice two lines serve to signal parity...
