I asked the net about the NCD terminals specifically, and got about 20 responses over the xmas vacation. The responses were about 19:1 in favor of the NCD. Those people who had compared it to the competition considered it superior, and the people who have been using them like them. Two comments came up several times. (1) Several people said that the NCD19 is enough faster than the NCD16 that it is a much nicer machine to work with. (2) Several people said that the NCD16 screen is just too small to work with the default fonts. I am hoping to see one of the NCD color boxes soon.... -- John D.
