203 separate images were stitched to produce a 17265 x 14313 die shot. All were shot by Greg James in San Francisco, then transmitted to the UK, where Christian Sattler corrected and stitched them together using a combination of Autopano-sift-C and custom code. A map of stitched images is shown on the right.

If you enjoy these images and our work, please consider a donation to further this work. We're a small group of enthusiasts who devote our free time and money to preserve computer technology. Your support is a valuable contribution to computer history and to preserving classic computer hardware in the public domain.
