It's a physical machine.
Fortunately, I don't have to deal with swapping parts. There's an outside contractor on call 24/7 for that.
The last time I saw it was about two years ago when I taped yet another piece of paper to the filing cabinet it sits on reading "DO NOT TURN OFF UNDER PENALTY OF LAW!"
Someone keeps taking the paper down.
Put a proper sticker on, that can't be removed easily.
