Part of the problem, I think, is that a lot of these operating systems aren’t as interesting without applications to layer on top. Figuring out what would be worth configuring is a task in itself.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">The more “interactive,” systems, like Tops-10/20, are perhaps interesting just because of the wildly divergent methods and commands they use. Unix and Linux have become pretty standard nowadays, and its fun to see how things were done on older machines. This is to say nothing of ITS, a system I wish were easier to get going.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Good luck,</div><div class="">Zack.<br class=""><div><blockquote type="cite" class=""><div class="">On May 31, 2016, at 9:09 AM, Ray Jewhurst <<a href="mailto:raywjewhurst@gmail.com" class="">raywjewhurst@gmail.com</a>> wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><div class=""><p dir="ltr" class="">Greetings all </p><p dir="ltr" class="">I am a total computer history buff. I have only used "real" PCs and Macs, but through simulation and emulation I have grown to be enamored with many different types of old computers especially DECs. I would love to spread my enthusiasm to the younger generation and I feel that Simh may be one of the ways to accomplish this. What I would like to do is package various simulators with pre-built configurations and documentation to show how these old machines work. I would like to ask all of you for advice and suggestions to help teach the younger generation how elegantly things used to be done. </p><p dir="ltr" class="">Thanks <br class="">
