Compatibility: ansi >X3.64., DEC VT-220, VT-100, VT-52. We require a good inverse video. Check out the AT&T 610. I have only seen one in a demo, and haven't actually sat down in front of one to do real work, but I was very impressed with what I saw. The keyboard had a reasonable layout (although you can also get it with the UNIX PC keyboard if you want) and the feel of the UNIX PC (very good.) I understand it's a replacement for the AT&T 4425 (nee Teletype 5425) which is VT100 compatible with the extra features you would expect from a good ANSI 3.64 terminal (insert/delete line/char, etc.) Apparently the cost is also very reasonable - I don't know what it lists for, but it's less than the 4425. I'd guess you can get one with an internal 1200/300 baud modem for under $1000 list. Disclaimer: I work for AT&T, but do not benefit if the 610 sells more. Mark
