Yeah, it's pretty persistent. Also, the green phosphor has a lovely
tendency to make everything look purple after you've been working with
the terminal for about half an hour.
I only wish the ADM-3A didn't make that high-pitched whining noise
(flyback problem, apparently), because it looks even cooler and has a
very good UNIX keyboard. I guess I'll have to wait until I get older
and can't hear such high frequencies any more.
