Basically DEC's version of an Apple ][ / C64, with 8-color graphics (at
NTSC compatible frame rates), that had a built-in copy of BASIC and a
color terminal emulator. Neat little boxes, I've got one laying around
that I ran across the other day.

Equipment
just saw outside at a surplus dealer:
2 Xerox 820's of some type,
1 DEC Minc-11,
1 DEC PDP-11/73,
1 Osborne-1,
1 DEC Gi-Gi,
4 Wang MVPs with Terminals and Peripherals.
Oh, now that hurts! I hope someone can at least grab the DEC HW!
Especially the Gi-Gi, and MINC!
