Those SAGE consoles also had built in, automobile-type cigarette lighters. Really! In this photo, you can see the lighter socket next to the ashtray. It's on the far left-hand side of the console, just below the UNIT STATUS selector.

You can still have the thrill of smoking while at your computer (though for PC reasons, it seems that they've renamed the ashtray "cup holder.")
