Yes! I do! I do! (Hand raised, flailing about)
When I worked for John Fluke Mfg. in the early eighties, I used to
repair their 6010 & 6012 audio frequency synthesizers. These used
one 4004 processors for EVERYTHING; keyboard control, display
generation (one led segment at a time), synthesizer latch loading,
level control etc.
It was one BUSY little chip.
Duh! I knew that - I really did! Now for a VERY serious question -
You - ah - still have any ties with Fluke???? I would be your friend
for LIFE if you could get me a 1722 - huh huh???? I would also want the
Hard Drive option - (heck I am wishing!) And the Assembler disk and the
Fortran disk and the Basic disk! Nicest little box I ever played with.
Nobody else here probably knows what this is but I would also like to get
my hands on a Numeridex 7000. Second nicest little box I ever played with.
Both of these where industrial strength machines. The quantities sold
for both where relatively small. Also they were HIGH priced. Anybody
seen - got - know of them?
