And of course there are some big machines around with

The folks at www.cray-cyber.org have one, judging by the photos,
though it isn't clear whether it is hooked up.
Last time I was down there in
that basement it was hooked up. We tried
to read some batches, but it didn't work well as the reader needed some
readjustment of the feeder mechanics. No big deal. So I expect it to be
in working order by now.
At the VCF Europa 2004 you could punch cards with FORTRAN programms at
the exhibition hall. The batches where transfered to the Cray-Cyber
Compute Center by car, read with the reader mentioned above, processed
and a few hours later you got the print out from your job.
