for it on ebay, but considering that I've yet to
find anyone with a
working Beehive terminal in their collection I still consider myself
lucky in being able to find one.
I wasn't aware Beehive teeminals were rare. I have 3 of them...
The oldst one I have is controlled by an 8008. It has the 'interesting'
feature of a hebrew character set (!). The other 2 are similar
electronically, one has a detactable keyboard, the other a fixed
keyboard. I was given these with some Philips P800 series stuff -- I am
told they were the original termianls used on those machines. Those are
8085-based. I also have a spare logic board for that type of terminal,
and even a spare CRT+yoke (the chap who gave me this stuff told me that
the CRT was very difficult to obtain).
