Yeah, the low RAM kinda sucks. But it seems a bit more light weight than PersonalAlpha and support way more disk..

Terminal software (other than DECterm) that can do ReGIS and/or SIXEL graphics?

I keep two VT340s around the house. I absolutely adore them. I wouldn't mind picking up a VT330, just because that almost-flat CRT is a sight to behold. Razor-sharp. By comparison, at times the VT340 can be a touch blurry, especially when not yet warm. Peace... Sridhar

Sridhar Ah OK, In that case I'll give it a go over the weekend. Mark.
