I am an IT Director for a central Illinois school
district and we recently uncovered a Mathiputer while going through old boxes of
electronics equipment from the 70s and 80s. Do you have any info about the Mathiputer or
even if the company is still in business? We want to tinker with it and give it to a
teacher as a gift... and a joke.
There's a picture at the bottom of http://www.gateman.com/museum/v.html .
Is that what yours looks like?
It was previously mentioned on the list in May 2003:

A mailing list of classic computer collectors will probably
help you identify what it is, but they're not going to encourage
you to give it to someone as a joke... they'll want to see
it preserved and given to a good home...
