Default Titor's Time Machine... USAF Missile Box???

Anyone been to the site dedicated to supposed time traveler John
Titor?

If so, can any of you identify the box that Titor claims to be a GE
C-202 Time Displacement Unit from 2036?

I read his story and looked closely at his color photos of the machine
but to me it looks just like an ordinary (our time) USAF remote
missile box.

Anyone here have knowledge of that equipment?

Can you point me to a site that has comparative photos of such boxes?

For those unfamiliar with John Titor he was the guy that claimed to be
a soldier from the year 2036 that had to go back to Rochester, MN back
in 1975 to recover an IBM 5100 series computer. Apparently the 5100
had some type of hidden feature that allowed it to translate computer
codes/languages... and that this feature, modified for UNIX, will fix
a problem with UNIX in 2038.

Titor sunsequently visited the year 2000 and posted messages about our
future. He even posted parts of an operating manual for a machine that
uses dual singularities to displace time- a GE C-202 that weighs
around 500 lbs.

I saw the photos of the machine and it looks like a remote missile
box. I wanted to know if you guys could identify it.


Thanks,
JS
