One thing I would add to the 5251-11 "cool" list would be the keyboard. For some reason I could type faster on that monster than any keyboard before or since. Or maybe the tactile clicks just made it seem faster, quien sabe. And if someone started shooting, I could always hide behind it - it was certainly big enough, and I don't think a small caliber bullet could penetrate it.

Sorry, David - way off topic - I'll go back programming now.

Seriously you have a 5251-11 still in use? Only thing cool about that was
it's ability to blow raspberries at users.

Last one I touched was a 5251-12. Which was like a 5251-11 with a 5294
remote controller built into it. But that was probably 20 years ago.
