If it's still in working order, consider yourself lucky.

Yes, particularly since parts are likely not available any longer now -
but what do you do with them, even when in perfectly working condition?

They were great for linear editing by providing a separate audio channel
that could be edited without affecting the video, however while the EDIT
switch was supposed to kill all on-screen text, you still ended up with some
unwanted text on the finished video when pressing certain buttons while
editing. Installing a small switch to shorten the on-screen dialog when
editing fixed that.

Regardless, they still look very impressive just sitting there on the shelf
taking up space...
