The Mailuefterl (German for "may breeze", an allusion to much bigger US
computers like "Whirlwind" or "Typhoon") was the first fully
transistorized computer in (continental) Europe. It was built at the
Technical University of Vienna (Austria) from 1955 to 1958 by Dr. Heinz
Zemanek and his team.
OK had to find photos out on the server I shot ages ago.
sent them to those that asked on and offlist
As mentioned we have 2 sets of panels.

You're right--the card, as much as I can see of it, matches a TX-8. I

I hear you about the weather and the timing ... we took a few factors into
