Darn! I was in the area last week, well, the East side of Novara anyway. I have a vague recollection that I have been in touch with him a few years ago. Will check when I get home tonight

The article mentions a VAX-11/780 and and an "IBM 390", but no pictures of either. There's a Laptop Grid Computer 1520 but it's not quite clear whether it is one that flew on the shuttle or just the same type as one that did. His aim is to have them all running and to open a museum. Antonio -- Antonio Carlini arcarl...@iee.org
