How about this photo:

    http://junkpile.fotopic.net/photo.php?id=360216

It was taken on a UK railway station platform, and shows the
"Departures" video screen. This screen normally displays train times,
but in the photo it's showing the BBC Micro startup message for
Acorn 1770 DFS (Disk Filing System).
