Did you scan this? I suspect forgery. Most of those controls
are analog. It looks more like the bridge of a ship. The
printer / keyboard seems anachronistic. Is that a DECwriter?
And why would the greenbar come out the front? Along with
the TV, they look pasted-in. The text looks like it was
rendered in Photoshop, not scanned. And FORTRAN might've been
invented at IBM in 1954, was it actually well-known?
