    Great website Longman, I can look at all of those crazy designs forever, I have a feeling Techmoan is hunting for the Wega as we speak. I just bought a early 70's portable TT, not as nice or big but still in my budget range and cool to look at.

    The classic design of the space age is fascinating even today

    I love the tape deck rack with the cutting lathe, we used to have several small studios around here.

    Made by Litton Industries a brand I had completely forgotten about. In the 1970s their cash registers were quite common here in the U.K.

    Litton was big here also, they were one of the first consumer microwave manufacturers.

    Well they were an American company, headquartered in California.
    A bit like Remington Rand, who we discussed earlier this week, and Rockwell, who made everything from Calculators to Space Shuttles !

    That was back when they said invest in the stock market, pick one of these iconic manufacturers, don't move your money, win, win, win. Most of them are gone now or merged.

    I'm more of a bean-bag chair guy, the right one is like sitting in a cloud.
