Can analog make a comeback?

[Maximilian Hohmann]

Hello!

I am resurrecting this old thread because I just saw Derek Muller's latest Video on YouTube on exactly this topic ("Veritasium" channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GVsUOuSjvcg): Modern analog and hybrid analog/digital computers. I found it very interesting and begin to see real applications in the future.

The "toy" analog computer that is featured in the video is this one here: "The Analog Thing" (https://the-analog-thing.org/ )

I am very much tempted to buy one of these, I already have an oscilloscope so it would be a matter of unpack-and-play. Does by any chance anyone already have one of these and can say something about it?

Regards
Max
