Today, Zach and I got Vince Slyngstad's PDP MM8/I memory expansion installed in our PDP-12! No magic smoke got out, the computer booted, and appears (from console and diagnostic checks) to have 32kW of memory! The PDP-12 only had room for 8 kW inside, but could connect to an external box that would include up to 24kW of additional core. Vince's expansion plugs into the five flip chip slots that would normally lead to the external unit. All memory hardware is on those five cards, with a six card providing an electrical connection. More soon! #umdpdp12 #pdp12 #pdp #dec #RetroComputing #VintageComputing
