Goerwitz) Newsgroups: comp.terminals Subject: Q for hardware whizzes (re wyse 50) Message-ID: <1990Aug13.234513.11474@midway.uchicago.edu> Date: 13 Aug 90 23:45:13 GMT Sender: news@midway.uchicago.edu (News Administrator) Distribution: comp.terminals Organization: University of Chicago Computing Organizations Lines: 10 At my wife's office recently they had quite a few Wyse 50 terminals die all at once. They all displayed similar aberrant behavior. They refused to start up properly, merely emitting a series of rapid beeps when turned on. If anyone has a clue as to what is going on, I'd sure appreciate a hint, as one of the carcasses is sitting in our living room, waiting to be resurrected and used here in our home. -Richard (goer@sophist.uchicago.edu)
