We're in agreement here, too ... I bought a dozen terminals over a
year ago. All were shipped for 240v. Once we fixed that, we had
constant reliability problems ... mostly power supply, but keyboard
and other problems as well.
They are great terminals (I'm typing on one now); much preferred to
the DEC VT220, but the added cost of having spares and a service
contract on the terminals make them too costly to own.
I am shopping for new terminals now; HDS is not on the list.
