- My PDP-8/F which was acquired from Princeton University several years ago.In 2009 I started to pay attention to it in, thanks to my colleague David Gesswein. In May 2012 at a MARCH fix-it event, I opened it up and cleaned out most of the soft-foam cushioning and inspected the cards. In May 2013, David and I checked out the power supply, then the cards, and got the 8/f mostly running! Since then, I’ve acquired additional PDP-8 items, which are noted on this Web page.
