What (who) is PDP-7 - definition
MINICOMPUTER INTRODUCED IN 1964
PDP 7; DECsys
PDP-7
<computer> A minicomputer sold by DEC in 1964. It had a
memory cycle time of 1.75 microseconds and add time of 4
microseconds. I/O included a keyboard, printer, paper-tape
and dual transport DECtape drives (type 555).
DEC provided an "advanced" Fortran II compiler, a Symbolic
Assembler, Editor, DDT Debugging System, Maintenance
routines and a library of arithmetic, utility and programming
aids developed on the program-compatible PDP-4.
[DEC sales brochure ].
The PDP-7 was considered reliable enough (when properly
programmed) to be used for control of nuclear reactors and
such.
Around 1970 Ken Thompson built the operating system that
became Unix on a scavenged PDP-7 so he could play a
descendant of the SPACEWAR game.

PDP-7
The PDP-7 was a minicomputer produced by Digital Equipment Corporation as part of the PDP series. Introduced in 1964,: p.8 shipped since 1965, it was the first to use their Flip-Chip technology. With a cost of US$72,000, it was cheap but powerful by the standards of the time. The PDP-7 is the third of Digital's 18-bit machines, with essentially the same instruction set architecture as the PDP-4 and the PDP-9.
