Here's my version from learning German in school 15 years ago:
For most Lego bricks may be play stuff - for programmer Eric Harshbarger
they're: The 29-year old American is probably the only Lego amateur
craftsman in the world, who makes money from his brick works.
The inquiries are piling up, particularly from Computerfreaks. A
Lego penguin for more than 1000 Marks ($450 - duq) is Harshbargers most
successful
sculpture - the penguin is the Mascot of the operating system Linux.
It all began with a scarcely a meter high and more than ten kilograms heavy
model of R2D2, the small robot from " star Wars ". Harshbarger may
not sell it however. The production company of George Lucas has the rights
to R2D2. More under www.ericharshbarger.com
Caption: UNIQUE PIECE This R2D2 sculpture consists of more than 3000 Lego
bricks /
