A complete computing center for processing punched cards:
The table up front with the two red boxes underneath is the CPU with
keyboard and a spherical head typewriter for output. The left part
contains 16K main memory.
The blue Calcomp 565-plotter is standing on the right side of the CPU.
A 2310 disk drive is located behind the right door of the CPU.
In the background, left to right:
An external 2310 disk drive, a 1442 punchcard-puncher/reader, almost
hidden a 082 horizontal sorting machine, the Tektronix 555 Oszilloskope
and to the right the 1132 printer.
Not part of the computer: EAI TR-20 analog computer on top of the
external disk drive and the KIM-1 on the green table
in the foreground.

And: The computer is ready to go! On June 4th we unpacked a truckload of
computers and on July 3rd, open house day, we were able to compile
FORTRAN-programs from the cardreader.

A few pictures of packing, transportation and unpacking

In the meantime punchcard-peripherials, plotter and the second disk
drive are also working.
