I always wondered why companies dont use those signs that is electricity
based, you key in the name of the company on a keyboard of a remotely
control layout , and the name shows in big glittering shiny lights on the
big board of the location of your choice, this way, when then company
shuts down later on, all what has to happen is to key in a new name or
simply delete the name using the erase key on the keyboard.
no cranes and no mess to deal with. reusable or recyclable boards, I think
that what they are .
thank you

| re: .0
If you happen to drive by at the right (or is that "wrong"?) time,
you'll see plenty of DIGITAL signs coming down too. We've closed
dozens of buildings in the greater Marlboro area in the last
couple years.

The Philadelphia Electric Company headquarters on Market Street
has always had such a sign. Which regularly display the PECO
acronym but is often used for other things as well.

| re .0
I guess this could be a good idea, but of course you must understand
with this idea, you just put thousands of sign makers out of business.

2079.11 | We could program business cards too (rathole) | AUSSIE::MOSS | Microcode: makes a cat run like a dog | Wed Sep 02 1992 05:54 | 14 |
| re .2
We have proposed several products along this line of reasoning :-) :-)
The state-of-the-art business card is one of these:
- Physically the same as the conventional business card
- Equipped with a CPU, LCD display and short-range RF transceiver.
- Down-loaded whenever it is brought near a Digital facility
with the named person's latest DTN, network address, title, address
- Goes blank or changes to reflect a new responsible person if
the named person is TFSO'ed.

2079.12 | digital keeps its distance | SALEM::SEGUIN | | Fri Sep 11 1992 21:14 | 7 |
| re .7
Digital has always managed to put their sign a distance away from their
buildings...or mmay it is my imagination...in anycase, all digital has
to do is up root the sign and transplant it to another facility...
Does any one know if any of digital's signs are attached to a building?
