Star Trek ’73

Star Trek ’73 at Deviant Art. For historical accuracy, it is worth noting that the general public typically wasn’t allowed anywhere near The Computer, especialy a nice PDP 11 (maybe a PDP-8). Most of us were in the Teletype room. Yelling at the 20 feet of Teletype roll is accurate, though.

Trek73 on a Public HP 3000 – this is the version I rescued from the attic of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bowles_Hall in 1982 and sent to Pete Turnbull 20 years later.
