[Tig] More memories please

Funny...The things that make you respond to the TIG, after
lurking for many years. Computer Graphics, right down my alley.

I ran the Dubner CGB-1 and CGB-2. It used a bit-slice
processor. Were they 4-bit ALUs?

Harvey Dubner had a special purpose bit-slice machine,
presumably a modifed CGB, in his living room working
on unique prime numbers and once or twice he appeared
in Scientific American as having discovered the latest
prime number!

Read the About This Video:

Todd actually used a stack of ten Amigas. A Render Farm. Lightwave 3D
and Video Toaster applications are mentioned. That era of Amiga,
the 2000, would have had a Motorola 68040 CPU speeding at up near 20Mhz.

Quote by Todd Rundgren "The ultimate fix for any Amiga was just to
slap it really hard".
>From experience that works for most things electronic!

BTW, Actor Dick Van Dyke, at one time, was a self-described "rabid"
user of the Amiga.

And Rolf Harris, my personal hero,  was an Amiga user too!

And it wasn't long ago that I dug up the lyrics for Alice's Restaurant,
something about 8X10 color glossy photos with circles and arrows that I needed
for a presentation.

Thanks my 2 cents

BTW, I am not an employee of Todd Rundgren, Dick Van Dyke or Amiga.
