[edit] Neutrality
This article appears to violate the WP:NPOV, though I don't know how to improve this with the information that is here. I don't know what should happen to this article. The topic I believe is sound, but I feel that as it is currently written it provides only limited useful information, and is almost exclusively about the controversy around the use of Vega Machines.

- I run a small electronic design and manufacturing company, and was approached to manufacture a range of Vega type machines on subcontract. On analysis of the existing prototypes I refused the contract, as the design contained no more functioning parts than a £10 continuity tester that all our wiremen use, plus a whole lot of switches that did nothing and components that did nothing because they were only connected at one end. And different prototypes contained different values for components despite their front panel functions being labelled identically - mind you, they still wouldn't do anything because they were only connected at one end. There was no way we could write a production test schedule because there was nothing functional to test.
- I have since seen the models I was approached about on sale for around £1500 ($3000).
- So from an NPOV I can confirm that these machines are pure stage props and carry out no useful function whatsoever - except perhaps for checking out wiring!Designengineer (talk) 12:18, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

- If you've got a reliable source on that, please add it to the page, otherwise it's not really suitable. Too bad though, very interesting... WLU (talk) 16:56, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
