Default Re: need help, Bridge reference photos

Worked a bit on the Tektronix 4051 computer. I am varying slightly by using about a 2 inch larger screen, it just really looks better that way. I also rounded the back end off a some. the real one is cut off square and has the cooling fan, memory card slots and data connectors. They hid that in the show, so I'm basically going to do the same.
I have about 20 more buttons to add, as well as the program tape which normally sticks out a little from the vertical slot next to the screen.
I actually managed to download a user manual and repair guide. That computer cost about $6,000 at the time, almost the price of a new car.
