Liking Analog Meters Doesn't Make You a Luddite (Video)

Posted by Roblimo on from the let's-not-forget-nixie-tubes dept.

Chris Gordon works for a high-technology company, but he likes analog meters better than digital readouts. In this video, he shows off a bank of old-fashioned meters that display data acquired from digital sources. He says he's no Luddite; that he just prefers getting his data in analog form -- which gets a little harder every year because hardly any new analog meters are being manufactured.

    Digital! When arbitrary precision is mistaken for accuracy!
