Small flexible plastic disk covered with a magnetic substance used to record data and computer programs. They can normally contain 1.44 MB of data and they are convenient for moving small amounts of data as they are transportable.

It's a 48 x 1 Gbit/s port switch with 10 Gbit/s optical uplink connection.

In the late 70s the larger IBM computers were water cooled. Amdahl, an IBM competitor, invented an air cooling technology for it's computers. His company worked hard, developing a computer that was faster and less expensive than the IBM System/360 mainframe computer systems. This object contains an actual Amdahl series 470 computer logic chip with an air cooling device mounted on top. The package leads and cooling tower are gold-plated.

Each module contained 8 circuit cards for a total of about 300-500 uncovered transistors packaged with face plates so the Freon plates wouldn't touch the circuits. (cooling plates that surrounded each module).

This processor relies on two key points: maximum performance and minimum heat output. 4M Cache ; frequency 2.40 GHz ; 1066 MHz FSB

8-inch floppy diskettes of the 70’s and 80’s.

It's a timing disc from the CDC 3300 computer. This computer was released in 1965. Moreover CDC means Control Data Corporation.

Steve Jobs created a NeXT generation operating system. The NeXTstation provides functionality that other computers are just providing today.The NS Color I/O cable attaches to the back of the computer on one end and on the other end the cable is split to connect to the display and the Sound Box. The Sound Box also has a keyboard signal port. Like a MAC or SUN of the same vintage, the mouse connects to the keyboard. These boxes run NEXTSTEP, which a full object-oriented OS. It has UNIX as a base and provides a gorgeous graphical interface. NEXTSTEP was also available for other platforms. They tend to run a little slow. But they have great digital sound and full color displays.

To allow CERN to test and maintain HIPPI equipment (High Performance Parallel Interface), a powerful test falcility is required. A tester has been developed at Los Alamos National Laboratories [9,10]. The CERN HIPPI testbox allows testing of HIPPI equipment both inside and outside the specifications. This includes the possibility of deliberately introducing errors. The main features of this testbox are: Manual set-up Processor controlled set-up Possibilities for remote analysis Checking the HIPPI specifications Checking illegal conditions
