I'm personally interested in an original because it's the physical standard
that a lot of imitations and emulations decided to implement. For similar
reasons, I have a LSI ADM-3A -- not because it's the best terminal ever,
but because it is so interwoven into the history of UNIX.
I personally seem to use a VT220 for most of my general hacking. It's nice
to have the current loop interface!
Thanks,
Jonathan

genuinely curious.
Why is the VT100 so popular?
Personally I prefer the VT420?s, though I?d love a VT340/340+ or VT525.
I have VT100?s, 320?s and 420?s. I really only use VT420?s. In fact I
have one
sitting next to my desk in my office hooked to a DECserver 90TL.
