#HappyBirthday to Ken Thompson, inventor of the a great many things in #computing, including #UNIX. For last year's 50th anniversary, we brought back UNIX Ver. 0 to the PDP-7, the original setup Thompson's team used. Hope we made you proud, Ken! #UNIX50 #computinghistory #otd pic.twitter.com/xJmXiTiG8k

If you've been to the museum, you know that we have a Baxter robot from @RethinkRobotics. You can program him to do a lot, but if you haven't seen @virtualmagician's @TEDTalks presentation, it's quite magical ;) bit.ly/3b95r9G #robot #robotics #TEDTalks #magician

Join us for today's Gallery Talk, where Stephen Jones shares how our #Engineering team brought #UNIX Ver. 0 back to a DEC PDP-7 for the first time in 45 years!
Meanwhile, check out this new video of Conway's Game of Life on the PDP-7's Type 340 display: bit.ly/2vtAz3c

One of the most influential figures in #computinghistory was born #otd in 1925. Douglas Engelbart believed computers could augment human intelligence. To that effect, Engelbart and his team developed tools like the mouse and chorded keyset we have on display at Living Computers. pic.twitter.com/zZbfuUQwSf

#Otd, we celebrate 40 years of a computer so light that we can take a picture while holding it in the other hand- the Sinclair ZX80! A fave of our British guests in particular, you can see it near other #Sinclair machines in Open Storage. #computinghistory #retrocomputing #ZX80 pic.twitter.com/AhoE6msjSm

Some come to play games, some come to learn history, some come to make punch cards. Others come to neatly arrange @bloxels. If you pay the admission fee, we will facilitate. #nojudgments #yolo #dowhatmakesyouhappy pic.twitter.com/tjQeGhpWwf

The BASYS was in the pedestal for a few years but is now featured with the Apple to show what we do to make our computers live. It is a reversible and practical way to get programs into the system. The ribbon cable is for the keyboard. 2/2

From our Engineering Manager Stephen Jones: We’re using a Xilinx BASYS3 between the Apple keyboard and the Apple I. This allows us to transmit integer BASIC through the keyboard along with 9 BASIC programs. 1/2

Living Computers Engineers spend the museum's closed days making fixes and improvements to our machines. Today, Jeff has been working on enhancing the keyboard on our #Apple 1 for visitor use. Come by and test it out! #engineering #retrocomputing pic.twitter.com/QF6h8UaLaP

Double checked with the experts. From our engineer Josh Dersch, "What's on display is a Lisa 2/10, not an XL."
