I have some photos on flickr: http://www.flickr.com/search/?q=analyser&w=82189696%40N00 The first one is a new display at the museum of (part of) the analyser. If you click on this photo you'll see that the adjacent photo is of a 360/40 which is part of the same display (with a 2314). The other photos of the meccano machine were taken a few years ago as it was being restored. There are also some photos of my 'toy' differential analyser which I made while at highschool (I was inspired by the meccano machine which had been on display in the '70s; the design was from Scientific American.) Background on the Cambridge machine: http://computerworld.co.nz/news.nsf/tech/7627BB58BAFE998DCC257317001AA6D1 (I had hoped to get to VCFX on the way home, but thanks to BA cancelling my outbound flight I didn't make it.) -- Lawrence Wilkinson lawrence at ljw.me.uk The IBM 360/30 page http://www.ljw.me.uk/ibm360
