Your friends will think you're totally a nerd if you actually know what a nixie tube is (outside of
completely amazing looking), but we hope that won't stop you from buying one of these $500 GPS time-synced
Nixichron clocks. Screw that 72-inch plasma, let this be the proper centerpiece to your living room.

It's time for Engadget to recognize the genius of Tom Jennings (maker of Fidonet among other). His hardware can be viewed at: http://www.wps.com/products/
And if you look around that site of his you will find more grand stuff.

Love them nixies. Other fave olden tyme tech, reel-to-reel a'la Mission Impossible.
Next I'd like to see a reel-to-reel MP3 player.

wow I haven't seen a nixie tube since, well a few weeks ago. My heathkit ham radio gear has a great nixie tube frequency readout.
