Are those still being made? Can a consumer buy one?
I don't think they make them anymore but unsurprisingly most are still functionnal.
The challenge would be to find paper for it.
They are still used in finance. There are a lot of antiquated technologies finance still uses because some random broker with millions of dollars on his book of business just says “nah, I am not using the new stuff”.
