These are rare beasts. The first one I ever saw was exhibited at VCF
Europa 1.0 (it has made a repeat performance every VCF Europa since). The
one you saw at the VCF was the original prototype, and the woman you saw
sitting in front of it was Lynn Jolitz, the person who wrote the BSD port
for it.
There are a couple of them going into the VCF Archive museum.
