=v= My high school had a PDP-8. I had no idea that it was a really old machine until I went looking for some documentation. Somewhere in the back of the school's textbook supply room was a manual from 1969.
It was so old, the pages were yellowed. It was so old, "documentation" meant learning the assembly language (BASIC was added later).
The book had a very welcoming title, though (Introduction to Programming), and was extremely well-written. Somehow it made one of the nuttiest assembly languages seem easy.
I'll see your 10 and lower it to 8!
