Hey, Teppo, don't you guys have wooden keyboards and computers running on rubber boots and vodka up there?

ics

Marcus MAC1 was wooden as I recall but very very expensive today

It looks like we are hijacking Andy's topic, but then again

wasn't it vintage Olivetti photocopy machine which Lazenby used at Gumbolds office

Gadget Meister

Yep it was an Olivetti, don't know the model number though. Have managed to decypher most of ESB original letter to Gumbold, difficult even in HD.

Higgins

Andy, you have OHMSS in HD?

As far as I know it's Olivetti Copia 105

It was on TV here at the weekend in glorious HD, I now have it on my PVR along with other as yet unreleased ones from the series. {[]

Andy has been ripping ITV 4

Gadget Meister

Haven't worked out a way of bypassing the HDCP yet Pete, otherwise you're right it would have been burned to BluRay already. Luckily I have a TB box so can have the whole series without even denting it, full of bloody adverts though.

danjaq_0ff

You should have had them off sky movies when they showed them, There is a way of bypassing the CP, I will ask

BTW do you have a feed going to your PC?

Gadget Meister

No but could jury rig one, surely if not HDMI though you'll lose the HD?

ics

Well HD is hummmmmm a must and we all have our sources -{

danjaq_0ff

To be honest Im not sure, but then is sky true HD ?

Gadget Meister

1080i so yeah I would say it's the best we can get at the moment until MGM pull their fingers out of their asses and give us full BluRay ......... next year for the 50th?

Back on topic and just to muddy the waters a little, at the time of OHMSS, one of the national newspapers (a Sunday one I think) were offering OHMSS wedding rings as a prize in a competition. Don't remember any other details and it's one of those items that I never kept a cutting for.

Gadget Meister

I think, regardless of your views of Lazenby or OHMSS, next to the SD Attache case a genuine (or genuine copy) two tone gold wedding ring must be the holy grail to all Bond collectors, I'm sure if we could lock the design down then it would pay us to commission a run by a goldsmith. What say you all?

Higgins

I am pretty sure, that I can provide the most skilled goldsmith on the continent and I am definitely in with a replica.

But we need better pics, especially of the other side of the ring.
