OK, now I know there are some mainframe freaks out there on this list
:-), but I would be absolutely flabbergasted if someone had a working
CDC mainframe running PLATO!
However, I figure there is still a small chance that someone has a
PLATO terminal? These were Z80-based, IIRC, had plasma screen
displays at first, and later had raster displays. They were *heavy*
and if I recall correctly they had a card cage on top of which sat the
monitor. They also had a funky PLATO specific keyboard.
Any other PLATO users out there? I was on udel's system in the
1978-1986 time frame, off and on, although PLATO wasn't the primary
focus of my activities. I did a little Tutor programming, but somehow
the language never quite gelled with me.
