This machine was donated to me a while ago. I have a feeling that I\'ve seen it before, at the Liverpool Nascom User Group many years ago, but I can\'t confirm this. The person that built it included a rather neat little monitor with direct video input. I have removed the RAM and EPROM cards for these pictures.

And with good reason many presidential portraits fit that description. Often the staged quality of these images seems almost calculated to keep the viewer at a psychological distance. That certainly is the case with the Portrait Gallery\'s likeness of Lyndon Johnson by Peter Hurd, where Johnson looks into the distance with the dramatically lit United States Capitol at his back. Sometimes, however, these more formal likenesses can be surprisingly intimate, and in George Bush\'s portrait by Ron Sherr, the potentially off-putting grandeur of the gilt-mirrored backdrop is offset by an easy intimacy that makes the picture eminently approachable. http://www.npg.si.edu/exh/travpres/tbios4.htm |
