<DIV>Good answers but we can not include Visual or Allen as they would be
considered refurbishers and not manufactures. They took parts from other
folks and made a quad.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>So we are getting closer.</DIV>

<DIV>We all know the Ampex and RCA machines. A number of us have seen
other machines in use. So the question of the day is.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>What other manufactures built quad machine? </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>The answer can not be a refurbished machine that was built on someone
else's platform. I know of two of the manufactures. I do not
know a third one but am aware of the machine. There may be
more.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Answers can not include prototypes.</DIV>
