Oh definitely.
But that machine was beautiful in a way different from an S/360. And
there's definitely charm to having an entire building's worth of

all of its tapes singing.

I didn't just mean the money. A machine had
to be junked to get that

I always thought that the S/360 with more blinkenlights was much more
impressive--and SO 60's!
