I think so too. I am suprised there wasn't more interest in it. It
actually appeared on E-bay last week, but I didn't bit becuase I couldn't
be sure of being able to meet the seller's deadlines for payment, etc.
Nobody bid, so it was relisted with a lower starting bid. Nobody else bid
this time either, so I got it for about \pounds 5.00.
The seller was a company in north London (behind Ponder's End bus garage,
if you know the area), so I collected it in person and avoided the
postage charges and possible shipping damage. Got some very odd looks
carrying it home on the 'bus, too ;-)

I've just bought the base unit (VS240) for a
VT240 terminal on E-
bay and
know little about it (OK, I know it's a DEC graphics terminal).
Perhaps
somebody can enlightent me
The VT240 is a nice terminal. Good score! printer port,
also RS232. A RJ11 keyboard socket, I assume an LK201
will
work here (yes?).
Yes, LK201. I've also used LK401s. Also, can I
connect the keybaord to, say, the back
of the VR201, or do I have to use the RJ11 on the terminal itself?
I don't recall if that works or not...it's easy enough to try,
though. ones in the
'bow. Pletny of RAM and ROM, and some glue logic. And
another
40 pin chip, DC310. For some reason this is saying 'processor' to
me. Is
it?
DC310 is the part number for the T11, isn't it?
