Hi all. I'm writing an article for MIT's Technology Review magazine about
vintage computer replica kits. I need someone to interview RIGHT AWAY.
It's currently 1:30AM here on the east coast but that is okay. So, if
you're awake and have any opinions about the various replica kits, or
especially if you've built one or plan to get one soon, then email me
OFF-LIST but RIGHT NOW. (Sorry for the late notice!!) I'm at
evan at snarc.net. Be sure to leave your phone number because I don't have
time for playing tag tonight.
Thanks! At least 15 minutes of fame gauranteed. :)

Evan, we live in modern times. Mel Gibson barely gets 15 minutes of
fame nowadays--there's too much competition. You'd best lower your
guarantee to 15 seconds.... ;)
Cheers,

But don't you know that all members of the press are manipulative liars?*
Oops, that is OT here. :) Anyway I just got a call from Sellam and his
sound bite trumps all of you!

Evan, would you mind posting a list of the available kits? Thanks, John R.

New subject: Replicas article / was: RE: Anyone want 15 minutes of fame?
Just a heads-up to whoever is interested -- the article is currently on the
homepage of http://www.technologyreview.com and the direct link is
http://www.technologyreview.com/InfoTech/17903/. A few projects didn't make
it into the article, such as Bob Armstrong's Cosmac Elf and PDP-8, etc., but
I'm still pleased with how it turned out. More important, there is real
news -- Sellam Ismail is now offering a replica PDP-1 front panel!
