Games, some can be used, some suffer from the >keyboard/screen. I use my T1000SE extensively as a terminal emulator for our VAX mainframe by running the EM4105 software package from Diversified Computer Servives. It has *no trouble* communicating at 19200 bps and has a subset of Kermit available for file transfer operations. Also included are a number of screen, printer and plotter graphics drivers, among these, the T3100 driver uses the full 640 by 400 resolution of the T1000SE screen to emulate a Tektronics 4010, 4105 or VT640 graphics terminal. All this to say that the the T1000SE can be used very effectively as a terminal emulator. John Osler osler@ac.dal.ca Brought to you by Super Global Mega Corp .com
