Nah, I mean google, I just remember stunning design. I was mostly using other stuff. That it had a gorgeous on-off switch isn't really what you want to read. (It did. It was designed like a sports car) even then, most compsci people used these things to get terminal emulators up and write code. Decent scanners and digital cameras were frighteningly expensive so viewing images was surprisingly hard, because you couldn't get them online simply.
So these workstations had huge latent potential which mostly, geeks that we were, we couldn't use. At ucl-cs we worked with students from the Slade school of art who used the drawing programs we wrote to do art: that was nice (I coded a flood fill algorithm naively in sunview, in like 1984/5)
