Membrain Software

2018-03-05 Thread Rob Jarratt via cctalk
In doing some research on the operating system for MU5, MUSS, I have been
told that a UK company called Membrain may have acquired it at some point in
the late 70's. Membrain were based in the South of England and made
Automatic Test Equipment.

 

Does anyone have any information on Membrain? Any software artefacts? Source
code even? I have had a look on BitSavers and Membrain does not feature at
all.

 

Thanks

 

Rob

Looks like the bin for a shredder.   But it's kinda small.  I suppose as

this is classic comp it could be the chad catcher for a keypunch or

paper tape punch.

Correction: Loctal with nine pins ;-) How crazy...
