Even "back in the day" the Beehives that we had were breaking fairly often. I have a feeling that people got sick of fixing them and just junked them. In our case, I think the terminals were only rated to 85 degrees fahrenheit operating temperature and our terminal room would routinely exceed that in the summer time. The failure mode was that the RAM chips for the display memory would start randomly toggling bits. This made your screen resemble some sort of chaotic "game of life" scenario. We soon learned the motor skills necessary to restore the proper screen state by doing the following sequence rapidly: - terminal offline - cursor home - clear from cursor to end of screen - terminal online - refresh display in the editor I'd be interested in seeing pictures and model numbers for the ones you have. There are several different models that were made by Beehive. I have interest in them for two reasons: first, I used to use one in the 78-80 time frame and second, they were manufactured in Salt Lake City, Utah where I live now. I would be particularly interested to know the model for which this applies. -- "The Direct3D Graphics Pipeline"-- code samples, sample chapter, FAQ: <http://www.xmission.com/~legalize/book/> Pilgrimage: Utah's annual demoparty <http://pilgrimage.scene.org>
