When I was a kid, my dad got me some time on a tanker (ship) that was
being automated.  They had a fridge-sized console that was built that
way which ran things.  I spent a few days helping them finish the
install and teaching them electronics, and they let me ride with them
on the sea trials.

I think my watch is more powerful than that was, though.
