Tim's still very active helping out the classic computer cause. These
days he seems to be focusing on PDP-10 family systems. There are now
*two* seperate efforts to generate PDP-10 simulators. One by Bob Supnik
and another by Timothy Stark. I believe both simulators are able to run
TOPS-10 7.04 with few glitches.
Tim Shoppa maintains a TOPS-10 archive at the following URL:
