There should be a page for sightings of Apple II's still in active use
(outside personal/hobbyist environments).  I think the Apple II is
unique in this way; PCs of similar age have usually been supplanted by
their descendants, and I doubt one would find a C64 or TRS-80 being
used in such a fashion.
