Hello all,

I mailed about this last year, and got no response, so here again:

I'm looking for info on this very strange terminal/wordprocessor from 
the early seventies:

as you see, there is not much info on the web about this very beautiful, 
yet strange beast.

Unfortunately the picture tube is broken and we are missing the main 
processing unit. It seems that the display used vector graphics as the 
horizontal an vertical are identical in design and the normal raster 
scanning generators are missing. the terminal connected with a 94 pin 
connector to the main unit, being also fed power though this cable.

anyone
