Yeah - these boards are pretty cool. I think the LCM+L was using either
these or something like them. The don't use real rotating storage anymore
if they can help it.
[Actually, the coolest thing I saw last week was the core memory
replacement they made for the CDC-6x00 systems. The cores got too
unreliable. So they made a board and lucite box that that form and fit
compatible. They told me a neat story. It seems after they announced to
the world that they had made it, somebody in the US DoD asked about
availability -- seems some old CDC gear is still in use [which seems like
an application for simh to me].
