The Beehive ATL-008 (ANSI/VT102 terminal) might be an

terminal today, but it holds a special place in my heart as the first
hardware terminal I used extensively, and was advanced (for 1982),
supporting user programming in C.
It was based on the 68008 and had quite the nice interface, and
extensions like soft keys.
Durango used Beehive VT100/VT220 (I'm not sure which)) on their Poppy
systems (which are probably even rarer than the terminals). The
terminals were re-badged as Durango.
I was a bit surprised to find that the Super Bee (of which I was very
fond in the day) was re-badged as an HP 2616A.
8008 CPU, with shift-register memory, IIRC. A heavy, slab-sided
terminal with a welded (?) aluminum case. Several illuminated keys.
