Last Thursday, I started a project to restore a PDP-8 computer to
operational condition
here at the University of Iowa. The Teletype Model 33 ASR that came with
this machine
is in battered condition, with a paper-tape reader that is hanging by its
wires and may
not be reparable. I've done a photographic survey of the system as it now
stands.

All the thumbnail photos are clickable. The photos of the Teletype are at
the end.
of Friday's update. There's also a Tally high speed tape reader, so even
if we never
get the Teletype's reader working, we should be able to read tape (and I
have
another rack-mount reader on hand if that one fails.)
