Does anyone have, or know of low level documentation for Evans &
Sutherland Picture System 2 hardware?
I walk past a PS-2 monitor all the time and some of us started talking
about bringing it back to life. I'm not sure if more of the system
exists, but it might. I plan to check.
I looked o

Hello,
I have some unibus machines that always need some way to interface to
modern disks.
I always dream to make an universal board that could act as disk and/or
tape interface to a modern medium (scsi or cf/sd card), but also ram,
network, I/O, whatever...
fyi: from the 6502 faq:
/* How do you turn bitmaps into polygons?/
We draw them in our custom Python app. We spent about two months
looking at automatic vectorization and using the bitmaps to create
polygon fragments, but neither of these was better than just sitting

It's good to see that the MFM emulator worked on a 3640. I

This all makes sense - if one can reach into the CPU, it's definitely
