HAHAHA! As long as it's not a Lucas Computer!
They had to quit making those years ago. They couldn't figure out how to make them leak oil.

But making them do 2+2=5 was easy.

Makes me wish I'd kept my Curta.

The guy who invented the Curta did so while imprisoned in the Buchenwald concentration camp.

I put out around $200 in the early '70's. Then sold for a bit less later. For a Walther PPK/S.

That workstation is nice, but I see it is already dripping oil on the floor.

I want a Curta. The history of the things is amazing. Almost bought one at a triumph show in Rockford. Guy had it in his trunk. We couldn't agree on a price.

Pawn stars bought a Curta and it's probably still in their store in Vegas. But from them, you'll probably pay to the nose! PJ
