I understand it's a bit more convenient to use if you have magnetic tape
drives,
I was curious if anyone recognizes this punched card reader. Marked:
AMP Incorporated - SYSCOM Division.
Can't help with the identity, but I'm loving the 9 edge hanging out the
front in contravention of the instruction label! :)
Apparently AMP didn't know the "face down nine edge first"
Does anyone know if there are any copies of this miracle of software? It would
be fascinating to see it in action.

Apparently
That is for configuring the initial setup for a gizmo tester
(semiconductor, cable, subassembly, etc.).

Apparently AMP didn't know the "face down nine edge first"
Wow! That is an incredibly complete and well-organized set of documentation.
I'm sure it will be useful as I move forward with the restoration. I'll add a
link to it in the blog.
Thanks!
That's amazing! I'll add a link to the emulator on the blog. I'd love to see
any new software for the G-15, especially the Algo compiler, since I think
that's something more people can relate to.
Hey Guys,
I was curious if anyone recognizes this punched card reader. Marked: AMP

It’s extremely well-built; pulling the lever at right moves the chrome lip
forward and ejects the card. Case is rather stylized which suggests it was
free-standing.

Hi all!
Been working on my 386i's, all the power supplies are smoked, so I
bought a totally burned out one, gutted it, and connected a PC/AT power
supply up to the card edge. Sure enough it works, and I now know that it
needs +5, +12, -5, -12 (for the ISA bus) and a 5 volt "supply ready"
I would also be interested in receiving a copy.
I recently completed an emulator for the G-15. It supports the basic machine
configuration -- just paper tape and typewriter I/O -- but I'm interested in
implementing other peripheral devices as software that uses them becomes
available. The emulator attempts to run at the speed of a real G-15,
