Title: Data General Terminal
Post by: BADBADNOTGOOD on Thu, 16 January 2014, 21:59:36

I found this to be quite interesting...

but that shipping cost is a bit of a joke.

For a minute I was thinking the black, purple, and green lettering on the top was part of the keyboard until I saw the second photo and realized it was their crappy watermark.

Still a very interesting keyboard.

Strange. I've never seen that one before. It has the same "tombstone" shaped keycaps as the Tandy 1000.
