Hello,

1st I don't want to put this as an alternative to mindstorns but since I don't
have mindstorms and the money for the starter kit I was thinking after seeing
a web of old analog computers, Is it possible to do a programble analog computer
with LEGO with out any electric engines and if I whould need at least one I
whould allow the technic engine kit but not of mindstorns the idea is to do an
analog computer, as I don't know much about engines and about how on earth they
just work old analog computers I whould like if someone could help me on this
idea.

About what for I want it well for now I want to see if is possible to do one
that can be programable and then we see what for I'll use it.

(...) No, it isn't a crazy idea. It's been wonderfully done with Meccano: (URL) it would be a great challenge indeed to come up with one using all LEGO! C S Soh (20 years ago, 1-Nov-04, to lugnet.robotics)
