We have a broken visual 500 at our site, and our repair shop says it costs
$200 for a repair manual. We only have a few terminals and wonder if it's
worth that kind of investment. Anyone have an extra manual they want to sell
or ???

While I'm at it, anyone know the escape code to get the visual 603 (and the
500 for that matter) to go from 4014 mode back to something sane like vt100
when someone is done doing graphics (a programmer here wants to basically
use the S statistical package to draw a graph and then get a usable terminal
back without this 4014 2 column crap. She has a 603.)

Any opinions expressed are my own.  Now, for a limited time, they can be yours
too, for the incredible price of only $19.95.
