--- Quote from: Bud on December 08, 2019, 02:20:41 am ---This gear would have been a nice complimentary item to the Apollo-Soyuz model at the Smithsonian. Too bad if it ends up in a bin after this guy will milk it for a video. --- End quote --- Knowing Marc , it will get a nice place in his house , next to the IBM360 control panel . |
