Summary

edit
Description
English: Two PhD students at a physics department wanted a computer on their own, and started to build a PDP-8 clone, based on what was available in the 1970. The system is built based on the Intersil IM6100 CPU. They had access to documentation via university. Everything is built by themselfes, beginning with the board layout, exposition, etching and soldering. They have extensive documentation on their work. There exist exactly two of those systems worldwide. Both still working.
