I just bought another "Think Different" poster on eBay, the Einstein one. I love that series of ads, they were truly great. I'd love to get one of the posters with the running ath…

I finally found a copy of Cliff Joyce's masterpiece "Calculator Construction Set" thanks to waynes.com. I haven't tried it yet (I really don't want to unshrinkwrap this rarity!) bu…
