In the 90's the Alpha processor was one of the most powerful CPUs you could lay your hands on. With a number of operating systems available for it, from both DEC (VMS, Tru64) and 3rd parties. It even have the most successful none x86 port of Windows NT. For many the Alpha was then next machine up if their x86 PC just did not have the CPU power they needed.

BN: In the intro I say the PDP-11 is 8bit, its not its 16bit. That was a slip of the tongue, I even wrote 16bit in my script, is that what I said no, did I spot it after watching through the video many many times, no.

Ever wonder how we ended up with the Internet we have now ? What string of events got us to where we are now. I'm guessing there is a version of the history of the Internet you've been told, but was it true, or just a small part of the what happened.

When Steve Jobs left Apple he setup a company that would create one of the most interesting Unix workstations. The NeXT computer would have an out sized effect on our society and the future of Apple.

Who is old enough to remember the amazing sounds when you loaded some Ocean Games and this tune played as they loaded?

Martin Galway was the master who wrote this tune way back in 1985

Intel seems to like trying to kill off it's most successful line of x86 CPUs. Itanium might be the last time we all remember, but the first time was with iAPX.

Lets look at the architecture that was once Intel's future, until it crashed and burnt.

Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC) was at one point the 2nd largest computer company in the world. Defining the mini computer, with its PDP range. It would eventually go one the create the VAX line of computers and its VMS operating system, and well as the Alpha processor.

Its time to look at the history of DEC, and its PDP line of machines, and build the PDP-11 replica kit the PiDP-11

Thanks to Poke, for letting me use their music, if you want to hear more https://soundcloud.com/user-455711299

You can get your own PiDP-11 from https://obsolescence.wixsite.com/obsolescence/pidp-11-get-one

The power pc (PPC) A1200 in a tower case happened at an interesting time in the Amiga's history. Commodore had gone bankrupt, the Amiga's new owners seemed to have no love for the Amiga, and with no new Amiga on the horizon 3rd party hardware providers created their own future for the Amiga.
