Hello list,
out of curiosity: Does anybody know where the two pictures of the Siemens 4004 CPU

where taken? Are these from the unit being part of the SAP collection at CHM?
Cheers,

I once ran into a Siemens computer used to control a Contraves precision drawing machine.
I found recently that those were mainly used for drawing master plots for printed maps. I
remember nothing about it except that it used hex digits 0-9, where 9 could also be
written as A, and then B to G for the digits representing 10 to 15. Does that ring any
bells?
