I came across a number of little embedded 12 bit dudes today - Fabritek
PC12s. It is hard to tel, but these look like PDP-8 machines. basically,
they are a two card sandwich (on side core, other side logic) built for a
card cage, with an aluminum faceplate with a very simple "plain-Jane"
switch register affair (12 bits, reset, halt, AC/PC/MD, deposit, etc.).

Any ideas? Are these PDP-8 lookalikes?
