    I was at either Office Depot or Staples the other day and actually SAW typwriters for sale.

    Does anyone have a mimeograph machine I can borrow? Or some carbon paper?

    I go to the local Office Depot a lot and they have electric typewriters.
    While we're on the topic of older technology, how many of you have seen or used a Curta Calculator? I have one that I bought in 1989 and still use it on a regular basis.
