There may be some photos of MIT=E2=80=99s Project Athena rooms in the colle= ctions of the MIT Museum (http://mitmuseum.mit.edu/contact) or = the Institute Archives at the MIT Libraries (https://libraries.mit.edu/distinctive-collections= /collections/institute-archives/). In a quick search online, I only fou= nd photos of the original terminal rooms, with terminals connected to VAXen= running UNIX. The workstations were deployed in 1986 +/-, I think.
