PDP-10 Emu

Source: https://github.com/paulnank/

Something for the seniors. 👴 There was a time when people would have pulled a tooth to call a PDP-10 their own. 

Considering the computing power in our hands nowadays, I prefer to keep my teeth, but the PDP-10 is an interesting machine in more ways than just one. 

The history of what is actually called the DECsystem-10 computer spans from 1968 to 1983 with a whole series of CPU's and technologies for their implementation.

Paul Nankervis doesn't want to let the machine rest in peace, and has written an emulator in JavaScript for the browser.  

If you always wanted to lay your hands on this piece of computing history, you can do so now thanks to PDP-10-JS.

Enjoy.
