Lisp machine implemented on a Xilinx Spartan 3 FPGA

• rbanffy 16y ago
  That's sweet. One of the reasons I want to set aside the time to learn some HDLs is to bring back machines like the Alto, the Lilith and the LMI and Symbolics Lisp machines.

    All I have from the golden years is a plastic cup given away at the Symbolics booth at SigGraph one year. Ugly yellow, but it holds a ton...

    Are there enough details about the machines available to reimplement them?
    • rbanffy 16y ago
      There are a couple software emulators that can run the original software, so, I assume, there is enough data to implement them. I never succeeded running the Alto emulator I have (Altogether)
