Subject: Re: Haletine 2000 ? was Re: Hazeltine 1200
I remember using Hazeltine 2000s with a HP TSB system in the early 70's. They
were funny because they had (I think) core memory, so some of what was on the
screen when they were powered down showed up when powered up again. The
old screen data was always corrupted, presumably because unlike processor
core, they didn't bother to power it down or up carefully...

I've always wanted to have a Hazeltine 2000.
I'm
curious, did a lot
of those survive and do folks see them or have them?

I've never seen one. I've been looking for one for a
long time as well, and I've never seen one for sale
anywhere (eBay or otherwise). I somehow doubt that a
whole lot of them survived, they were pretty early,
and would have been probably made obsolete by even the
ADM3A.
Right up there with other unobtanium terminals like
Beehive, Soroc, and the Ann Arbor Ambassador. I'd put
the Tektronix 4010 on the list too, except I know that
at least one of those exists :)
