I've got a system running two copies of SIMH for TOPS-10 7.03 and TOPS-20
4.1. I've got another system running KLH10 for TOPS-20 7.0. I've found
that those emulator/OS combo's are what work the best. SIMH supports
'virtual terminal lines' and 'printers', while KLH10 supports ethernet.

Take a look at http://www.aracnet.com/~healyzh/pdp10emu.html I've got links
to prebuilt emulator installs. Off the top of my head I think they're all
for TOPS-10.
