Classic Computer Replicas

Digital Equipment Corporation emerged from Project Whirlwind and MIT. For 30 years, it was the undisputed trailblazer of interactive computing. The strand of computing that led to Windows, Unix, Linux, Android, and microcontrollers in everything. The replicas contain the work of many people, collecting documentation, recovering ancient software, developing emulators. That makes it possible now to make replicas with a realistic 'back in the day' user experience. In other words, although we make these replicas, there is a huge community that we built upon and have to give credit to. Our goal is to make these replicas affordable and pretty enough to find a place in the living room, so as to spread the capsules far & wide :-) So yes, the above is an oversimplification. But gives a quick picture of how our 5 replicas, combined, cover all the strands of computing before the microprocessor era. Except, we give very little respect to the World of Mainframes here. Which is good, righting that ... Read full article.
