  Ugh.  Yeah, I've got a huge amount of old iMac, Linux, and I think a BSD
image, or two, that are encrypted with passphrases lost to time and/or hardware
failure.  I'm looking forward to the day when I can get a quantum computing
system to help me get back into them.  :|  Huge tracts of photos and documents
from significant portions of my life are trapped in them.  Alas...
