Oh, for Pete's sake, a Tempest terminal, right
when we're talking about
classified info. Just so you know, this one is compromised by the
insecure monitor (I think - it should be MUCH bigger, and not plastic,
if Tempest approved) and the non-Tempest keyboard. "Tank-like" is a
very concise description.
The Tempest 5150 (or whatever the Tempest designation was for the IBM
XT) that I have looks like a regular B&W monitor. When I took off the
cover, the shielding became apparent :).
It has been quite a few years since I looked at it, but I believe the
Tempest IBM XT I have is complete including Tempest keyboard and monitor.
