I have one--in pieces. I don't know if it works but I got it all
disassembled with cables hanging out of it. A neat unit. Hopefully I'll
find a complete one some day, or get this one working. There were not Mac
ROMs in it by the way. I paid $5.

What specifically did you want to know?

It was a Mac clone with 8" x 8" (or so) LCD screen. The integrated
pointing device it uses is the most interesting feature. It is a 2" long
ridged cylinder that you roll back and forth for up and down motions and
slide left and right for left and right motions. Very cool.
