Title: In the latest Brookstone catalog.

Kinda neat.  Either the guy in the ad is a giant, or they cut a few corners, sizewise.

Wonder what they are running in them?

The product desc says "full size authentic replica - just like you remember them".

Dude must be 9 feet tall.

It is a replica of the cabaret version. It is only 58" tall.

Duh... Didn't think about the cabaret versions...  Haven't seen many of those.

Still gotta wonder - some kind of emulator based system or real dedicated boards?
