OK we can also use the DEC emulator also as we have a H 11 we need to terminalize as well as an 11/20 we want to breahe live into here at the museum...... PLUS if anyone has a copy for the HP we can use that also..
WRQ was a great product We were a dealer for them back in the 80's And Duh I forgot there was a DEC version also. ( seldom sold it as we mainly addressed the HP market. Always a great dales day when one of our people that had a series 68 3000 would bump terminals for use of PCs and need a bunch of copes of Reflections for the PCs to be terminals to the 3000 also!
Thanks Liam for the update on ownership glad to hear Reflection still exists!
thanks Ed Sharpe archivist for SMECC...

DEC terminal emulation wasn't the problem for me and my employers,
back at the end of the 1980s and beginning of the 1990s. It was Wyse
terminal emulation. Wyse totally dominated the dumb serial terminal
market in my part of the world by then, and OSes like SCO Xenix
expected Wyse terminals and their quirks. An emulator for the DEC
terminal the Wyse claimed to emulate would not work well.
For us that was the appeal of stuff like JRiver ICE.TEN and WRQ
Reflection -- perfect Wyse emulation.
Oddly enough Reflection is still around. WRQ was bought by Attachmate,
who bought Novell, and who were bought by Micro Focus -- so for whom I
now work.
