>         Ampex 230 
	Ampex makes casette tapes.  They make terminals too?
>         Beehive Superbee 
>         Concept-100 
	Ancient terminal.
>         Hazeltine (terminal) 
	Hazeltine used to make terminals, then they stopped.  Esprit Systems
	(somewhere in New York) was created by disgruntled employees that
	still wanted to build terminals.
>         Heathkit h19
	Heathkit provided these homebuilt terminals.
>         Lear-Siegler (LSI?) ADM-3a 
	No, Lear-Siegler, the furnace manufacturer.

>         Tektronix 4010 and 4025 

	This one I know! Tektronix, Inc., Beaverton, OR.  I don't know who
	you'd call, exactly (this is a sizeable company).  I called around for
	about ten minutes to get you this information: you might try
	locating your local Tektronix Field Office and ask them (look in your
	closest metropolitan area phonebook), or call the nationwide Tek
	toll-free number 1-800-835-9433 and the Secretary should be able to
	help you.  Also, 1-503-235-7202 (toll call) will get you the Media
	Services people (ask for Jan Foster), and you should be able to get
	documentation on the terminals of some sort.

	Tek 4010s are old graphics terminals that lead the way for direct
	storage vector graphics.  The Tek 4025 was Tek's first (very) succesful
	raster graphics terminal.  We still have quite a few of them in our
	labs (4010s, we have naught). The 4025s speak a very strange language
	and have no cursor-motion commands, so they are not terminals of
	choice around here.  But they're still popular for graphics and
	especially for storing pages and pages and pages and pages of
	debugging output (you can scroll 'way back).  Tek has hacked a version
	of vi so that vi can be used with 4025s, but curses and dpy are
	incompatible with the 4025.  The terminal sitting on my desk is a Tek
	4105, which is a much more powerful ansi/graphics terminal.

	Televideo

	Wyse

Hope this helps, Anne.
