I knew John to be a very good friend up until the day he passed away. We crossed paths hundreds of times since 1981 when we first met. I worked on optical printers & animation cameras for many years, and the history of OCS is very vivid. I remember traveling with John to South Korea where we assembled a custom built optical printer together that he purchased from me. An innovator, a brilliant machinist & engineer, and a loving family man. I wish OCS continued success. BTW, great video! AM

I was working on an Oxberry 1700. We did realy nice bluescreen and frontlght/backlight comps. If I had the space, i would buy one, just for keeping it.
