Update (university computer club)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Update Computer Society (Datorföreningen Update in swedish) is an academic computer club at the university of Uppsala, and a member of the Nordic University Computer Club. Update was founded in 1983, and membership is open to all students and employees at the University of Uppsala and the University of Agricultural Sciences at Uppsala. The club operates its own terminal room in the computer science building, and provides various computer services to its members. Several of the members have an interest tending towards the historical, and Update keeps several ancient computer systems, architectures ranging from VAX and PDP-11 to Cray and from LISP machines to PDP-8, some of which are kept operational and ready to run.
