I've been reading about Wyse 60 terminals for several years now, and felt
lucky because mine has behaved very well ... until today.

My picture has shrunk to the middle half of the screen horizontally.
It fills the screen vertically, but the lines are warped, and the
characters have substantially different sizes from top to bottom.

Any advice on how to fix it?

(1)  Is there some simple gizmo that I can replace myself?

(2)  Is there an alternative that might be cheaper than sending it
to Wyse for repairs?  (It's long past warranty.)

Thanks.
