Re:
The HP264x terminals had something vaguely similar.
You could daisychain
terminals off eachother in a bus configuration instead of the typical star
configuration (all RS232). MultiDrop I think they called it.
Yes, but it was an option (a rarely seen option at that).
I never saw one running.
IIRC, it was a poll/select system, ala Burroughs early CRT terminals in
the early 1970s.
