Does anyone have one of these?

Are they still available for sale from WDC?

I've never seen one in the flesh. You'd have to contact WDC about availability.

I have one, and I'll be bringing it to the Chicago ECCC show this weekend.

I received it from Bill Mensch long ago when I was working on some 816 stuff for Creative Micro Designs.

P.S. I asked a few years ago about pricing and availability. I believe Bill emailed back, noting they were for sale, ~ $900.00, as I recall.

ECCC = Earth Coincidence Control and Command. See John C. Lilly's writings. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_C._Lilly Or was it ECC perhaps?

Yeah, I recalled it after I had posted. Every year it is during the same weekend that we have a big meet at our large-scale railroad, so I have to choose, and the trains always seem to win out.
