Current Status
In 1969, DEC improved upon the LINC-8 with the PDP-12, a similar combination computer for lab use, and the LINC-8 was cancelled. Few LINC-8 computers were ever built, numbering only in the low hundreds, and so the model is a rare sight today.
As of 2008, a project to emulate the LINC-8 on modern hardware is underway within the Update computer society at Uppsala University.
