Intersil 6960 Sampler

general view

You can see here how the whole thing is embedded into a wooden case.
To the left off the Sampler-board, there is a breadboard. On this 
breadboard, the then-colleague Z. has kindly recreated parts of the MMU
of the PDP8 with the help of some GALs. Thus the 28K read/write memory
is now available and you can play for example the "CHEKMO II" chess 
program on the board, which is innately equipped with only 256 words
memory.
