Goal of this page
|
Provide descriptions of items in Old "Visible Storage", alphabetically
by manufacturer.
|
Note:
| There is a gigantic collection of computer system manuals and programming manuals available at http://www.bitsavers.org/pdf/. Organized usually by manufacturer, sometimes by a sponsoring organization. For instance, the ILLIAC IV is listed under "univOfIllinoisUrbana" rather than under "Burroughs Corporation". |
