I have
pretty much all of the DEC microprocessor-based
terminals. Do you think it'd be a good idea for me to, over time,
pull them out and read their ROMs for archival or reconstructive
purposes?
I think that would be a good idea -- not just for emulations but to
make it possible to repair any terminals that suffer from bit rot
in future. I've been doing that for years (decades, actually!),
and I have some of the VT100 ROMs on my website at http://
www.dunnington.u-net.com/public/DECROMs/ (read the file ROMlist to
see which they are). I'd be happy to host images not already
there. See particularly the "Wanted!" list in that directory :-)
