Anyone heard of a Hazeltine? Not sure of the model but I have a black
one piece terminal looking unit that I'm curious of the sentimental,
astetic or collector value of this brand of machine. Any input
appreciated and maybe there will be one up for adoption soon.

Just a basic dumb terminal. Nothing particularly special about it.

Thanks Sam, had a feeling it as but hated to see it get kicked or busted if it
might be a "diamond ring in a trash heap" o to speak. Never heard the name that
I'm aware of.
If anyone has an interest in this unit, drop me a note and I can even get the
model number tonight. It will inevitably go the way of the Edsel (to scrap) if I
don't find some interest in it soon.

Actually, Hazeltine made graphics terminals. I know that they made vector
graphics capable units, both real vector, and i think emulated vector
using a raster screen.

Hazeltines were an early terminal used on a number of machines, if I
remember correctly.

They made quite a few different models of terminals, and one thing I have
heard but not yet confirmed, is that one of the models had some core memory
in it.

Don't remember, but IIRC, it came from someone who would have known. I have
several Hazeltine terminals, and haven't taken the time yet to check them
out. Ancient memory says something about saving settings, but don't know
for sure.

Hazeltine is/was located in Mass if I remember correctly. They made a lot
of RADAR consoles, we used them in the USAF. I do remember that the ones we
had used electro-static deflection. You could rub the screen with a nylon
cloth and the image would smear all over the place.

I *knew* I've heard that name before and couldn't place it. Back in the mid
70's when I first went in my roomy was an ATC and I used to be able to sneak
into the tower area when he worked graves at Nellis in Vegas.
By the way this appears to be a terminal only, black in color and a model 1500.
Haven't even put power to it yet but it's pretty in design anyway.

I do not think that is the same Hazeltine, but I could be wrong. They were
a pretty big contractor during World War 2, involved with radio and IFF
equipment.

Another bit of trivia; the first employee of Hazeltine retired here in Santa
Barbara and was living with his daughter until he died (don't recall his
name right now but he did have a PhD.) I have the Sharp 7000 that was
presented to this guy when he retired from Hazeltine. His daughter contacted
me to see if it was worth anything a couple of years ago, and after she had
no success with trying to sell it ($25.00 or so), she gave it to me.
