Fun fact – did you know that the Apollo Domain keyboard interface uses the same connector as the C64 video interface, an 8-pin DIN connector? *update* it doesn't, there are two different DIN-8 versions.

This at least makes it easier to build a Domain keyboard cable for my HP9000/425 (I should have a number of C64 video cables sitting in a box). This machine combines the HP Unix and Apollo worlds and has different keyboard connections for HP/UX and DomainOS...

L’Apollo Domain 2500, c’est le genre de machine qui te rappelle que “the network is the computer” n’est pas né avec le cloud ☁️
Architecture 32 bits, Domain/OS, réseau natif, CAO et calcul scientifique…
Une vraie station de travail, pas un jouet.
