I recall when we got a new machine (maybe a 3090) there was a cable
linking the two parts of
the double processor, and this cable had a defect. The replacement cable
had to be fetched from Montpellier,
so they chartered a taxi for that. Our site is in Stuttgart, Southern
Germany. Stuttgart - Montpellier is about 1000 km :-)
Kind regards

France, definitely.
I visited the plant and I had some CPC machines from that.
BTW: The plant was quite huge, but the floor space requirements were
reduced significantly when they migrated from ECL to CMOS.
However it was closed approx. 18 years ago. (I mean the plant, not the
office)
