Hi psilo.update.uu.se is going down for maintenance tomorrow morning. We are getting new system drives and replacing a fan. Should be up again by evening time I haven't followed the HECnet list so closely, but Psilo does some hecnet routing. How much do you guys depend on Psilo? You are more than welcome to do so, I'm just curious. (well, the mailing list is also run from Psilo.. so there is that) /P

Bosack in particular worked extensively with Lisp Machines at Stanford...and was there ever a PDP-10 that DIDN'T run a lot of Lisp? ;) Len worked for Ralph Gorin at Lots, tops20 on PDP10. Have a look at the Tops20/Tops10 tape drive code. -P

But TI made the silicon for it, and from there we get those first generation expanding Macs, and of course the trillions of List Machines. In fact I've got an AUI Transceiver here may have been used on one, then again it being tagged with a HP number on it, I suspect it was used on of their cranky machines..... ----- Gregg C Levine gregg.drwho8 at gmail.com "This signature fought the Time Wars, time and again."
