I remember seeing girls "weaving" those things when I worked at Philips in
the late 60-s!
Interesting to see them accomplish that, but not my cup of tea.

Ahne.

Quoting Pat from the email he sent to me with the pictures:

"Steve I am sending a couple of jpgs of core, can you post them with
what-is-it titles?     See if we can stir up some old memories.   
These are from a Westinghouse Prodac 250, I think they are either 2 - 1K
memory cores, or possibly  4 bit x 1k.  
How would you like to sit and lace those.  I have re soldered some that
the wires were broke during cleaning.     

I grabbed this one when they scrapped the machine 20 years ago, it is dated
1971, I was a college freshman learning machine code programming, Fortran
and Cobol, ah how times have changed..."

Hey All,

 

Pat Goodyear is probably unsubscribed now  :o(  but he sent me some photos
on Tuesday to post on my page. From his email:

 

Steve, 

I am sending a couple of jpgs of XXXX, can you post them with what-is-it
titles?  See if we can stir up some old memories....

 

So I have posted them. Anybody have any ideas of what this is?

He let me know what it is. I'll keep that to myself for a while to see if
anybody really knows....

 

Steve
