Ok, here's one:  You could try looking into one of the ann arbor alpha/graphics
terminals - like the XLG or XGL or XG series or something like that.  I use a
plain 'ol Guru XL text terminal (with line-drawing set too) for $2400, and i
have been pretty pleased with it.  I don't know for sure if they have what you
want for under 3000, but its quite possible.  There quality seems to be pretty
high.

				 to get through for a while now)

hope this helps,
