What idiots!! This is so cool! They should not only keep this in place, but turn this into an exhibit for the school. Here's a great little piece of "ancient" technology as that other reporter called it (asshole) that is used to save energy and is still running and doing its thing, 30 years later. Love it.

I have 2 TRS-80 Model 1's and a TRS-80 Model 4. The Model 1's still work, but the keyboard bounces and the tape drive is all gummed up. The Model 4 was working but finally died when first its floppy drives stopped working (because I broke a terminating resistor), and then a trace on the power supply cracked and now there's no power to the motherboard. Sigh!! Will fix them one day I guess.
