An exceptional view: three La Regence side by side.

For comparison with the Double R, 2 computers La Régence TSB4 (Sandy).

The 3 computers are different on:

- their wood manufacture;

- their legends: German versus French (for Sandy versus DoubleR);

- their German legends (TSB4 versus TSB4);

- their program version of the Richard Lang's Cyrus (French Regence versus TSB4);

- their electronic: (?) must look inside (!)
