      Zaha Hadid designed the Broad Art Museum in East Lansing. I drive by it daily and it takes your breath away. It is clearly the best thing Michigan State has done for the community in a generation. The lady had a very special talent.

      They used it as a set for the movie Batman vs Superman

      If you're talking about this image...

      https://www.inexhibit.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/04/Apple-Lisa-OFfice-System-3.1-screen-shot.jpg

      ...it's definitely in the Lisa aspect ratio and not the Mac (which was about 3:2). And there's also a window named "MacWorks System Disk", so yeah.

      Or the NeXTcube.

      The Holborn computer from the early 80s had a pretty cool futuristic look https://www.inexhibit.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/Holborn-9100-09.jpg

      It doesn't look like anyone who works at the site has English as a first language. https://www.inexhibit.com/about-us-2/
