Cool!

So now we've got:

>Televideo TS-802 -Pretty in Pink
>AT&T 6300 -Secret to My Success
>IMSAI -Wargames
>HP-150 -Real Genius
>GE Differential Analyzer (UCLA) -When Worlds Collide
>Thinking Machines CM-5 -Jurrasic Park
>Memotech FDX500 or MTX512 -Weird Science
>Mac Plus -Star Trek IV
>VAX 11/750 with IBM 3290 plasma display panels -some independant film (?)

It's kind of cool to be able to spot a vintage computer that you recognize
in a movie. I never noticed the computers in "Secret to my Success" until I
found a AT&T 6300, and then the computers on the desks might as well of had
flashing red lights on them. "Hey! I've got one of those."
