I bought a WYSE 2208 through BusinessLand in April of '89. It is a 286 running
at 8 MHz, and has a BusinessLand VGA card and monitor. It came with a Seagate
20 Mb drive and 1 Mb internal memory, and I added another Seagate 80 Mb 
drive some months ago.

Besides the slow speed (I could not afford anything faster last year) I am
quite pleased with the system. The reason why I chose WYSE was because
BusinessLand recommended it, and they could also finance the system. I did
not have to deal with WYSE themselves, but I understand that they are a
large company (they seem to make good terminals).
