ID this puppy and I said I would ask around.

The colors remind me of 1970s Data General gear, but that's not my
area of expertise.

now, you have a line on one?

I think that's Data General (DG) not Control Data.Corp. (CDC)

Ooops, DG, not CDC, sorry, but it is definitely a Dasher terminal.
Atari had quite a few of them installed in their Home Computer Division
when they had a pair of DG MV8000's installed.

Not sure exactly what model - but I'm almost positive
that's an old Data General Dasher terminal. The image
has been flipped in some image processing program
though, because the keypad is on the wrong side of the
keyboard...

You might look into Data General terminals, for some reason that comes to mind.

DG Dasher 100 or DG Dasher 200; 200 had upper- _and_ lower- case keyboard
characters(!) as I recall.

Data General Dasher. It could be either a D100 or a D200.
It looks to me that there is the model number on the terminal, bottom
of the screen, but I can't read it.

Yup, I have that one here! (Never made pictures of it).
It is a D200/100 from Data General.

Could also be Zentec from the shape. the photo is too
small to speculate on that w/o a better look at it.
They had the same shapes and sold to a variety of
other vendors. Microdata had a Zentec design for
instance and it was tan with brown trim.
This fits with what DG said from a color standpoint
though.
