Tektronix 4025 terminal!* I brought it home but haven't had time to try it
out yet. I googles but didn't find much about it. Can anyone tell me more
about this thing?

a big pile of manuals :-)

The 4025/4027 series terminals do graphics with programmable character
sets and vector graphics support.
depending on the option boards installed. I think it has about 10
character sets standard.
I have a 4027 color and a 4025 mono?. Neither has been powered up in 10
years. 15 years ago I did a
color character set for rogue running under UTek on a Tek 6250. I
still have the manual, but it's buried
n the shed. I'm going to do some spring cleaning and will be dumping a
bunch of stuff on e-bay because
my contract at Intel is over tomorrow and i'm going to be real hungry.
I'll get the manuals and do some
scanning.I believe the CPU in the terminal is a Z80?
