Looks like the helmsman's station for a starship. It's in
Mineapolis, and, as of this writing, its $9.99 with no bids.

Hmm, anyone know anything more about the internals of these (e.g. are they
based on any kind of stock system with extended graphics capabilities)?
Consider me irritated about the timing - I suspect a trip to go get it might
be asking a bit too much of our truck this side of Christmas, or I'd jump at
the chance. Sounds like the seller wants it gone ASAP, unfortunately :-(
Anyway, I can offer enclosed storage for it in one of our sheds over winter
(almost certainly longer if needed) if that ends up being useful to anyone -
I'm about 5 hours NW from Minneapolis.
cheers
