I have a 262x HP terminal, think it's a 2624. It
is the "ET head" style. I
got it years ago and stuck it in a corner of the basement, and just got it
out to clean it and get it up and running. It now has lots of white spots
under the glass. Looks like mold to me. Nice perfectly round dots. But the
thing is they are UNDER the glass. Is anyone familiar with this terminal
enough to tell me if it's now dumpster material or can this glass be
reached
under or taken off somehow?
I pulled out my best ADM-3 the other day... kept in a cool (65-75 F),
dry basement and the same blasted thing has happened to it. Fortunately,
I also have a ratty one that I haven't had as long and its CRT is OK
(though a little image burned). I'll get around to swapping the CRTs
this weekend (hopefully). Did anybody figure out what causes this?
