Cyber 72 Leaves The House

Dismantled CYBER

The cabinets containing the CDC Cyber 72 (upgraded from a Cyber 70) have been disconnected, electrical and physical, are ready to take the plunge out the door of the 16th floor of the Library/Law School building.

Note the film had been compromised through a journey to the USA, and was in the camera too long.

It worked well, as there is something coming or going through the 16th floor door.

Mind the step - it's 14 floors down; Cyber on the way out

Coming or going, it's recorded for posterity.
