I was looking thru one of the yearbooks from my time at University of Missouri, Rolla. I found what I think is a photo of a GE-200. I "liberated" this system or one of them to a lab I had, when they were mothballed, and I could swear that is what the systems were.

If anyone recognizes them, let me know. This is the first hint of any sort as to what I had. And my memory could be wrong. The square indicator and switch style is very much like what I recall for this particular system.

I had gotten handed a couple of very heavy trays of Lambda power supplies which clearly were for some purpose due to how they were mounted. I later found the system I think was a GE-200 neglected in a stockroom in the EE building and recognized that the interconnnect would fit the power supply trays I had.

The system was transistorized, not IC I might add. That was why it took 4 or 5 large Lambda supplies. Luckily we had not broken the supply tray up and i was able to play with it.

The other thing i think might be of interest are several photos of an analog computer that the EE dept had. I know there was another much larger system in the Physics department as well, and maybe I'll luck out and find a photo of it later.

Oh, and the blond at the keypunch. I might add that she is probably retired now.
thanks
Jim
