Yep. I was pretty sure it was the same case, but I didn't want to be
the one to make that assertion first. I've only ever seen one or two
DECtalk boxes in the wild.
I've not seen any since those days; I found a couple of boxes at work that
I hoped were DECtalk but they were DECmux instead. Bits of me are saying
that the DEREP (the 'other side' to a DECbridge) also used the same casing
but I wouldn't swear by that, it's got to be 15 years or so since I last
saw one!

I think so, it
was the standard model for the MINC Lab computer and some
of the docs I've got show waveform style graphics.
My MINC came with a VT105, but I've done some reading and it appears
that VT55/VT105 waveform graphics are supported with a standard VT125
(along with all its other features, such as video *in* with text
overlay) So if you see a slab approx 15"x9"x3"
marked VT240 or VT241 at a
hamfest, it's easy to turn that back into a terminal - just add an
The same casing was used for the DECmux and DECtalk
