1966 Mag: Build NE-2 Neon Bulb Computer - scan available

No, I'm on a CB/CBS (Central Battery / Central Battery Signalling) exchange :-)... On the other hand I do have a Linesmans Set with a transistorised oscillator (runs off 3 D cells inside) that does the job of said magneto :-) What do tyou want to know.... I think it's fairly well-known that, to put it politely, I don't necessarily approve of the latest technology. In particular, I don't rely on anything I don't understand and can't repair (those are not the same thing, although they are related). Of course my defintion of 'repair' may not be the same as other people's. I aosl will not trade performace for convenience. All too often modern stuff seems to be more convenient (to the Luser, not necessarily to the techie) than that which came before, but it delivers a much worse performance. Sorry, I'll stick with having to tweak the convergence panel in my TV and monitor if I move them rather than have the inferoir picture of later designs, I'll stick with havign to load my double dark slides and compose my picture on a ground glass screen if it means I cna have buildings that dont appear to be falling over, and so on. -tony
