A blast from the past

I recently discovered an interesting vending machine in the CCNY library. But before I tell you about it, let me show you a modern vending machine:
This machine vends iPods and iPod accessories. It's super-fancy: It takes credit cards, has a touch screen, etc. Pretty cool.

Anyway, here is CCNY's (functioning!) vending machine:

    Did you check to see if the computers in the library had any USB ports?

    That's nothing! I'm sure Rutgers has a machine that vends phonographs. We can outdo CUNY any day.

    RUTGERS!

    at NJIT there is one that vends coke, which you then buy a few of and drink different amounts from and then you can play some music!
