Mr. Fred Wilhelm

Dear Fred:

\J	This is to explain a request by Ralph Gorin for some details on the
KL-10 paging and sectioning hardware, programming differences from KA-10,
front end interfaces, interrupt structure and built-in devices--e.g. clocks.  
Ralph and Jeff Rubin want to start planning our time-sharing software as
soon as possible.  I understand that D.E.C. may not be able to let us have
this information right away, but I would appreciate any information you can
let us have and also any estimate on when we can learn more.  Would it
make it easier if they asked a lot of oral questions, but didn't take away 
any documents?

	Sorry to be troublesome.\.


							Sincerely yours,



							John McCarthy
