Oh, wow. I like the PDP-12 at the beginning (well, at 4:22 actually) of "Bonus Video 2". That was the successor to the LINC-8, which, like that machine, was both a LINC and a PDP-8 in the same computer; it was designed for use with lab equipment.

if the audio is good enough, can webwit tell if the 3277 in the second video sounds like his 3278?
