I think having that many references to the Cheops pyramid is silly. Larsbrinkhoff (talk) 16:46, 25 July 2018 (CEST)

Yep, sorry, my fault. Feel free to clean it and possibly add appropriate links on topic. GerdIsenberg (talk) 17:46, 25 July 2018 (CEST)

Thanks. I have a block diagram of the CHEOPS hardware, and permission from Moussouris to publish it. But I it seems I don't have permission to upload files. Larsbrinkhoff (talk) 10:22, 27 July 2018 (CEST)

Should work now GerdIsenberg (talk) 16:31, 27 July 2018 (CEST)

Yes, thank you. I added the block diagram. Larsbrinkhoff (talk) 11:00, 28 July 2018 (CEST)

Another thing. I also have the source file for the microcode. From reading that, it seems like there was no PDP-11 involved. Rather, the PDP-10 spoke directly to CHEOPS, or to a core memory on the bus. I also have the PDP-10 software for doing this. Is the information on this page based on the article in Computer Chess Compendium? Do you have it, and if so exactly what does it say about the PDP-11? The block diagram says "PDP11 UNIBUS" but I take that to mean the type of bus rather than there being a PDP-11 attached. Larsbrinkhoff (talk) 11:05, 28 July 2018 (CEST)
