Favorite terminals
>From GZ@MIT-MC Fri Oct 23 07:06:12 1981
My two favorites are Teleray 1061 and Heath 19, both under $1500. But then I
probably have different criteria.. I doubt either is compatible with HP
anything (both are VT52 supersets). They are great for Emacsing, perfectly
livable on slow connections (1200 baud or (God forbid) less). (In fact, I'll
take a Teleray at 1200 over a VT100 at 2400 (a choice I actually make in real
life)). I probably prefer the Teleray keyboard layout and feel over Heath's
(and, of course, all the 23 programmable function keys, and the META key).
Both have numeric keypads if you're into that sort of thing.
