OOOOOOOOOooooooooo! What kind is it? I can't read the label on the case.

tr_one, good link. There is much other info on the site you posted that picture from. It looks like you might be able to find a PDP-11 emulator and run it under that. Also might be able to get the OSs:

And the machine I was thinking of for the garage looks more like this:

I got the PDP-11 emulator compiled and running...  Ok, now what the heck to do with it?  

voidmain:
The first and only one I have tried is located here:
ftp://minnie.tuhs.org/pub/PDP-11/Sims/Begemot-2.9

Basically I downloaded "libbegemot-1.9.tar.gz", configure/make/"make install", add /usr/local/lib to /etc/ld.so.conf and ran "ldconfig" as root.  Then I downloaded the emulator "p11-2.9.tar.gz", unpacked it and changed into it's directory and did a:

$ ./configure --with-begemot=/usr/local/include

I got a compile error on the file "dev_toy.c" when trying to make but I figured out the problem. Just add:

# include "time.h"

right under:

#include "proc.h"

This should allow you to do a "make" and "make install" (install ass root).  Then you can run the emulator by typing "p11".  Since you have no OS loaded or no disk image all you seem to be able to do is look at registers and stuff.  

There doesn't seem to be a lot of documentation but I noticed in one of the docs that you can get disk images from somewhere but haven't gotten to that point yet.  Now I really have no clue what I am doing from here (of course I didn't from the start).  So in order to do anything useful with this thing it would take more research.  Not sure if I want to spend much more time on it.  But I would certainly be interested if you make headway...
