John Catmull (correction: sorry, his name is Ed Catmull, as tbab corrected me), Pixar co-founder and president wrote a book ("Creativity Inc") where he tells that story in detail.

He wrote that everybody in the team had forgotten about Sussman's copy and she is the one that told in a meeting the copy existed, to the astonishment of everyone else. The van that went to pick up the computer on Sussman's house was equipped with pillows because they were scared even from the road's vibrations.
