SUMMARY:Hardware Day - Tuesday June 18\, 2024
CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:The Computer Museum will host its next Hardware Day on Tuesday 
 June\n18th\, 2024 from 10am to 4pm in the Davis Centre \"Fish Bowl\" (DC13
 01)\n\nWe plan to bring out the DEC pdp11/04 and the Waterloo Computer On\
 nWheels (\"the WatCOW\")\, another PDP 11 system that was used for\noutrea
 ch in the 1970s.  We will also have a variety of portable\ncomputers and 
 some of our functioning vintage systems (Commodore 64\,\nApple II\, Macint
 osh\, TRS-80)\n\nListen to Don Cowan describe the WatCOW (YouTube Link\n[h
 ttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i4_dNz_W-Ho&ab_channel=uwaterloo]) at\nthe 
 Math Faculty 50th celebration\n[https://uwaterloo.ca/innovation60/blog/pos
 t/math-alumni-celebrate-facultys-first-50-years]\n\nSpeaker: At noon\, Lan
 ny Cox will present the PiDP-8 and PiDP-11\nsystems - a pair of scale-mod
 el simulations of DEC minis running on a\nRaspberry Pi using the SimH simu
 lator. His talk is entitled \"My Many\nMini-Minicomputers: Peeking Inside 
 The PiDP\".\n\n_\"Lanny Cox is a lifelong computer enthusiast with great i
 nterest in\nthe DEC minicomputers of the 1960s and '70s\, but not much spa
 ce to\nstore them\, or extra spare change to pay the power bill. Luckily\,
 \nthough these computers are no longer in production\, a dedicated\ncommun
 ity of engineers have spent decades preserving their hardware\nand softwar
 e and making their computing environments available to a\nnew generation o
 f users._\n\n_Join us for an exploration of DEC's significance in computin
 g\nhistory\, a look at modern efforts to make computers like the PDP-8 and
 \nPDP-11 accessible to home users\, and perhaps even a scale-model\ndemons
 tration of these iconic machines.\" _\n\nAll are welcome!
