You would think they would have popped that out and put it on display as opposed to the plain vanilla 4004. |
sorry, my english is not good enough for this. please explain:-))) |
Ha! Your Engilsh is fine. Certianly better then my German.
Translation: "If there was a grey trace C4004 in the Busicom, they should have put that on display instead of the common white C4004" |

Of course I've not been into that Busicom machine and maybe it was never opened by Intel staff.
But the board I know contains a grey 4004. I found the link again:

Anyhow, I am sure Intel does have at least one grey one and the fact that they don't show it tells me that they are not up to date with the official (our!!!) interest in their history.
Hey, who are we? Just some freaks??? |

Just to complete the set, I scanned in the museum map for you guys. The numbers correspond to an audio/video guide running on a Dell Axim that they give you for free upon entering(not to keep...otherwise there would be a line out the door clear to Palo Alto).
