I have one I picked up from a thrift store along with the floppy drive. I’ve never once used it. I doubt it works, but I don’t have an old enough TV / adapters to plug it in to test. I’ve considered modding a modern computer into it but the way the keyboard assembly is put together makes it challenging.
