The VT78 is, as far as I can tell, a PDP-8 cpu of some sort (the cmos chip?)
stuck into a vt52 with a floppy controller.

What I'd like to know is why my rx02-pa came with a db25 cable plugged into
the interface board.  It would up under the top of the box and into a db25
on the back.  The rx02-pa should just be a normal rx02 in a vertical box that
looks like a decmate I.  The interface board seems to be the same, so I
just unplugged the berg<->db25 cable and stuck a berg<->berg cable in.
When my rx211 arrives I'll know..--
