I worked with a successor device the Tektronix 4010. It's a storage
scope that doubles as a terminal. It ought to be easy enough to
emulate the alphanumeric part of this with a terminal but the
graphical capabilities would be a challenge -- especially if
portability was an issue. But if it wasn't challenging it wouldn't be
interesting or any fun....
just my $.02
