Well, quite.
I could certainly see stuffing a terminal emulator into the 8KB of a
64Kbit PROM (24-pin 8KB Moto EPROMs (e.g. 68765/66) work just fine)
shoved into the extra (unpopulated) ROM socket of a 5150 (U28). 8KB of
ROM would certainly be useful for many terminal protocols.
I don't know if it was ever down, however.
