I have two of these I would consider selling to fellow list-members (or
trade for a Processor Technology SOL :) :)
Mine have the more modern displays, not nixies. Nice, beautifully built
analog computers. Contact me off-list.

I managed to
pick up a COMDYNA GP-6 analog computer a couple days ago out
at University Salvage. I initially bought it for its nixie tubes, not
knowing what it was, and then was a bit dissatisfied with the fact that
they were not in great shape.
After taking a few seconds to look at it and try to determine what is was
with all the banana jacks on the front, I thought "Hmm, it adds and
multiplies... google says 'Analog computer'... Wahooo!!"
More info about the one I have - looks to be an early model - with nixie
tubes intead of the modern LED voltmeter.
