Hi Vern and Randy,
I'm also interested in the Antikythera project. I _think_ I ordered the book,
"Decoding the Heavens," but I won't know until it actually arrives. Ordered
it indirectly via Amazon.com, but my money was soon quickly and unceremoniously refunded.
I think and hope I then found another copy via bookfinder.com. I recently received an
email claiming that it has been sent.
Making something like this must be pretty prohibitively expensive wouldn't it?
Still, I am interested.
Thanks,
Robert Greenstreet

Hi Randy,
I responded quite favorably to your proposal. I'm wondering whether you got any other
people really interested in the Antikythera device, and whether you are going to go on
with the project.
It'll probably be a couple of months before my shop is workable again; moving and all
that. But I am interested.
Regards,
Vern Wright

wondering if you guys love this as much as I do.
I would like to make a user group/club for it if there is
enough interest
For myself, I am fully equipped here with machine
capability and stage one is to make the model (2005) as
currently known.
Stage 2 is heck make these in volume, its a marvelous thing
and may be profitable.
You cannot find a better classic computer than this.
