Still have a slipstick as well.. ;-

**Me too. I have the finest one ever made. The mighty Faber Castel
2/83N.

Mine is just a cheap Ricoh (Japanese) one. Bought it for 6th form and
university. The curious thing about it is that it is made from wood with a
plastic facing for the scales! Thus I can claim to have an analogue
computer[1] made of wood. :-)

[1] OK, its not programmable, so not really a 'computer'. However it never
gave me a blue screen... ;-

Slainte,

Jim
