Almost everyday I use the a DEC vt220. A bit slow because it only does 9600bps reliably, but still useful. At the University Computer Club, UWA, we've got about seven in the clubroom. Do they get used? its often tough to find one free... someone's donating a couple of DEC vt320's to us in the next couple of days. I'm hoping they handle 19200 acceptably. (vt220's handle it, but every n'th character gets corrupted.) anyway, I'm sure there are millions of people just like us living off the donated equipment of the more fortunate. BTW, if anyone wants to donate an old SMD controller, we have a Sun 3/280 in need :) ,dunc -- Duncan Sargeant, keraunothnetophobic.
