What are you paying over there? It's $0.095/kWh here, was $0.135/kWh
down in Florida. (that was a major factor in my decision to move up here)
They don't give a proper breakdown of costs per kwh...but my (likely
incorrect) calculations showed it to be about $0.12/kwh.
55kwh/day at $7.02/day. Due to some odd plan account budget thing, it
amounts to much less than that in reality. Save for the month or so where
you make up the difference.
There's also this line on the bill:
"In order to save you money, a new supplier must offer you a price lower than 7.6 cents per KWH for the same usage that appears on this bill"

It's MUCH more usable when using RTERM. Thank you.
Why is CTERM so slow on TOPS-10?
Because CTERM was designed, in essence, as a remote procedure call representation of the VMS terminal driver features. The ones in TOPS-10 are entirely different -- just consider the way carriage return echoes. So TOPS-10 is forced to do its terminal I/O through a protocol that doesn't come close to matching what it really wants to see. I suspect it simply runs things in single character mode, since that's about the only way to guarantee that you get what you want.
Come to think of it, TOPS-10 RTERM mode may well be just that, but it's a very lightweight protocol so it's fast. It also has the nice benefit that it exists on systems that don't do CTERM -- like RSTS.

Credentials are guest and the password is guest. Still need to install some
stuff for language support.
If you like it more, there is a way to have a user with no password (and/or
with the ability to actually change password disabled). Just play with REACT
and look for the right incantation, because I do not remember it anymore...
It's related to requirements I believe.
