That’s a really good question.  Are they being used for emulators?  If so, I can sort of understand this.

The reason I have a DEC VT420 sitting next to my desk is so that I can have the appropriate keyboard, when I need it.  It uses LAT to talk to PDP-10, PDP-11, VAX, and Alpha systems (mostly emulated these days).

I’ve been seriously considering a Honeywell terminal, for accessing my Multics system (I have used the VT420).
