Talk:Christianity by country
[edit]Greetings
I see you commented on the Talk:Christianity by country page some time ago. There is currently a request for comment out on this page. I would like to invite you to comment. There seems to be some opposition to using the Eurobaromter 2005 figures for the number of Christians, instead of the inflated non-sourced estimates of the CIA Factbook.

LINC-8
[edit]While randomly browsing Wikipedia, I discovered that there is a project at Uppsala Univ. to emulate the LINC-8. I was privileged to learn most of what I know about computing by sitting down with a LINC-8, the Small Computer Handbook, and the LINC-8 programming manual. I wrote drivers, analysis programs and just about anything else that was needed to support a medical research team.
I still have an original copy of the LINC-8 Programming Manual from DEC. My copy is from the 5th printing in 1970. If this would be of any value to your team, I would be happy to make you a copy. I also still have the 1967 and 1972 versions of DEC's Small Computer Handbook. Please let me know if you are interested.
Thank you, Veloman (talk) 01:42, 19 November 2008 (UTC)
- Hi Veloman! I'm sorry it took me a while to reply. The fellow who is working on the LINC-8 emulator has been busy recently and has not been able to discuss the usefulness of these manuals. I know we have a PDP-12 manual, and also various Small Computer Handbooks (the 1968 and 1970 versions are on the shelf right next to me), but I am unsure of the LINC-8 manual.
- I will try to get some more attention from the programmer in question, or contact the department housing the LINC-8 to see whether they have the manuals available. If any of your manuals are useful to us I will be sure to let you know. Thank you very much for your offer, and I am also happy to hear of your interest in the project!

[edit]Salut Bjarni, Je suis arrivé sur ta page en suivant le lien du PDP-? ... J'ai oublié le numéro, au départ je cherchais une page sur les mémoires à tores magnétiques, je me suis rendu compte que je ne connaissais que partiellement la gamme des PDP, et j'ai exploré les connaissances de Wikipédia sur le sujet. Et je suis arrivé sur ta page. Génial :) On partage une passion commune, tu es le bienvenu à Toulouse en France.
