Living Computers Museum + Labs

The Living Computers Museum + Labs in Seattle WA, USA provides access to several systems in their collection via SSH, several of which are SimH emulators. SSH connection is available through a web brower or through a terminal:

ssh menu@tty.livingcomputers.org

Available DEC systems include:

• lc, a PDP-10 KS10 running the Incompatable Timesharing System (ITS) v. 1648
• ka175, a SimH PDP-10 KA10 1050 running TOPS-10 v. 6.03a
• kl2065, a SimH PDP-10 KL10 2065 running TOPS-10 v. 7.04
• rosenkrantz, a VAX 7000-640 running OpenVMS v. 7.3
• misspiggy, a PDP-11/70 running Research UNIX v7
• zippy, a VAX-11/780-5 running Research UNIX v8
• guildenstern, a simh MicroVAX 3900 running BSD 4.3
• snake, a PDP-11/84 running BSD 2.11
• alphy, an Alphastation running OSF/1
