There is a website out there that describes a construction of two full
bandwidth I think it had only one fold. Not very portable because they were
part of the basement. Does anybody have a link?

You're welcome:-)
It gets mentioned every so often - the name popped up from memory.
http://tinyurl.com/7xmg4 on a whim ... interesting to read old comments.
It automagically popped into the new beta format when I changed my first
search results location bar from google.co.nz to google.com, out of
consideration for majority US users, though ... they must be promoting it.
I'm not sure I like the extensive personalisation of it once one signs up.
: Decware Has (had? can't seem to find it..) a Virtual Tour of thier
: place..About page 24-25 it gets interesting,with a giant concrete horn
: in the basement.
The last link of the three I gave seems to fit that description ...
Takes a while to load on a slow connection. Worth the wait.
