Pdp-12 Laboratory Computer Price List

This document is a product catalog and price list for the Digital Equipment Corporation PDP-12 Laboratory Computer systems and their associated peripherals, options, and supplies, effective as of January 1973.

The document details several pre-configured systems, ranging from the basic PDP-12/10 Laboratory Instrument System to the more advanced PDP-12/40 and Laboratory Data Processor configurations, including specific information on the TSS/12 Multiple Language Timesharing System.

The majority of the document serves as a comprehensive price list categorized by component type, including:

• Peripheral Processors and Arithmetic Options: Floating point processors and priority interrupts.
• Storage and Data Transfer: Disk storage, paper tape, and magnetic tape systems (including DECtape).
• Input/Output and Communication: Card readers, CRT displays, plotters, printers, and data communication terminals.
• System Expansion: Memory modules, I/O bus converters, and direct memory access (DMA) multiplexers.
• Laboratory Instrumentation: Analog-to-digital and digital-to-analog subsystems.
• Maintenance and Supplies: Spares, software packages, and various consumable media (tape, paper, ribbons).

Finally, the document provides guidelines for system configuration and field installation, including a breakdown of travel charges for maintenance based on distance from a Digital Service Center, and a layout sheet for planning system cabinet arrangements.
