NATAL was developed by the National Research council of Canada
and was subsequently turned over to Honeywell corp. for support
and marketing.  It uses several different I/O devices including
a colour graphics CRT and slide display.  From what I have heard,
it is quite a bit more sophisticated than PLATO, having been 
developed more recently.
I was under the impression that the system was developed by the
NRC for the Canadian military. The only installation that I know
that runs NATAL is CAL centre at CFB Trenton.
