This link shows a number of views of the IBM 1130 that came from Austria. WAY
larger than a 9404.

This conversation, and this picture in particular, takes me way back.

When I was in college I was given a Tandy 10 - all I had to do was haul it away. It worked fine, but consumed so much electricity I rarely even turned it on. It took up a large enough chunk of my garage that parking a car in there was not even conceivable, but it was a great conversation starter and a workable desk. On cold winter days I could power her up just to heat the garage.

Anyhow - just wanted to say thanks for inspiring the fond memories...
