Yup, another interior view. |
It was a shocker on Friday night, Oct. 20, when Paul Lassa showed up with C65 serial number 1! He was there to show it off, not to make a full presentation (though everyone urged him to do so). The crowd was so entranced by the machine; they could not take their eyes off of it or off the demo of images being loaded one after another on the screen. Darn, I didn't have my videocamera ready! :( Paul had become the most interesting man in the world! ;)
