Check out this site which I found through
slashdot.org. An
interesting use of those old beasts as musical instruments.

And I thought using printers for music went out with the old
line printers of the (50's? and ) 60's! :-)
Surely you jest! We were playing "Row-Row-Row Your Boat" on our
Dataproducts LPM300 well into the 1980s...
In fact, I have the "music" on the [dead] Prime at home, just
no line printer to play it on!
