You'd be surprised how many of these "ancient" systems are still around,
and how many companies call me out of the blue because they've
discovered this "thing" sitting in the corner that they can't even
identify, but when powered off, things break. 

We have a lot of skills here for stuff like that. It's part of how we
keep them sharp. So, there's a real business justification for all this
fun. 8-)

No functioning hardware, but I do have maintenance manuals for one. And
CRONOS manuals. And I think... yup -- a spare power supply for a console
terminal for one (the one that was installed at Texas A&M, way back in
the dreamtime). At least it's got a TAMU inventory sticker on it. 

I have a very patient wife. Thanks, love. 8-)
