And I thought the terminal in bits on my bench at the meoment was
over-comples, what with a Z80A, 40K ROM, 24 16K*1 DRAMs, and around 150
TTL parts, but anyway...
Of course, shipping for, say a hundred VT520s is
significantly higher than =
for those modern replacements - even when you add in the (now LCD) screen. =
Which reminds me... Somewhere I have a VT100 clone -- a clone right down
the setup screens -- using an LCD display. It's fairly old (simple mono
LCD), I bought it about 10 years ago and it wasnt' new then. I must dig
it out
Oh that's right, you can just go down to Best Buy
(which rarely is) to buy=
the screens.... =20
That's not to say I don't have a personal preference for the originals - I =
have mostly VT420s at home, and we're refurbishing a bunch of VT100s and VT=
52s here at work. -- Ian=20
I wish I had a job where poeple refurbished classic terminals...
