We have 10 HDS terminals, ranging from an ancient c108 which
still works to a Model 200G on my desk. Reliability is good,
price/performance excellent, ergonomics exceptional.
You won't believe how nice 4-8 pages of memory can be until
you try it. In our terminfo, when you go into 'vi', it
uses the top 24 lines: the effect is that when you exit,
the screen you had when you invoked 'vi' is restored, including
the line where you said:
$ vi foo
We're about to buy 8 more, so that's my opinion.
