DEC VT320 or VT420. They are reliable, small, cheap, and easy to find.
I'll second that. I use a VT420 whenever I need to plug in a
serial terminal.
Agreed. I've used a huge array of terminals over the years from many
different manufactures, connected to may different types of
computers. Hands down the VT420 is my favorite. I was lucky enough
to be given a pile of them when a friend was having some troubles in
the late 90's. My only problem with VT420's is that I no longer have
enough desk space for as many as I'd like to be able to use.
