Does anyone know where we can obtain an inexpensive, commercially-produced,
fully-programmable, bit-mapped graphics (>= 1024 x 768 monochrome) terminal
with a fast (say Ethernet) interface? A BLIT Mk 2 is what we're really after.

The intended use is for a University student terminal classroom - i.e. they
must be robust, inexpensive, and come as a two box unit (monitor + keyboard).
Suggestions of SUN, Apollo etc. workstations will be ignored (physically too
big, too locked in to manufacturer's cruddy software), as will suggestions of
Atari STs, Macintoshes, IBM-PCs etc (too many boxes, too small a screen, etc).

We'd build our own, but someone else must have beaten us to it, surely!
