i am looking for a cheap terminal, x-terminal, or computer, and maybe
a modem also, to log in over the telephone lines with.

i am particular about the following.

        o must be ergonomic (easy on wrists & eyes & ears)

        o must have a meta (alt, clover, diamond, whatever...) key
                that gnu emacs can be made to understand

        o must be cheap for its category of equipment

i am not particular about which os it runs or whether it runs one at
all; obviously if it can handle x, that's better, but it isn't
required (and might be too expensive anyway).

any ideas or leads?

thanks.
