I’m not really sure when it stopped being made, but it wasn’t first manufactured in the 70s.



Also, let me check something...

Did Olympia make it?

No.

This appears to not be entirely correct.  Olympia didn’t design it, but they did manufacture it under license.

The best way to demonstrate it to him is take a save of 40 year old fortress with 150 dwarves in it on a good sized embark with a volcano that just breached the circus and install it on his gaming rig and watch it bring his rig to its knees.

I'm not aware of it being possible for nixie tubes to be any other color.

...I found a list of nixie tube calculators, 2 of which had green-colored numbers, but I just realized that it says these are "tube calculators", not "nixie tube calculators". Not sure why they're on the list if they don't actually use nixie tubes.

Did it have more than one set of number buttons on it?

Specifically, do buttons for the digits 0-9 appear more than once on it?

Yes.  Finally!

I think this is the largest number of pages it’s taken for you guys to successfully guess one of my things...

Anyways, congratulations!  Now to take a well-deserved break...
