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.

So... another nerd joins the fray!  ;)

It's not such a crazy idea, actually... and there have been many
different attempts at building computing devices out of LEGO in the
past, of varying degrees of complexity and usefullness   I'm not too
sure about what's involved in building an analog computer, but a while
back on the technics group (there may have been crossposts to this group
too) there was quite a flurry of ideas on how to build digital computing
elements entirely out of LEGO.
