There is an ad in the Dec 17th Computer Decisions (pp 21-23) for the
Televideo 905.  It lists for $405 but they offer to sell them at $296
to you "if you're a computer professional, MIS manager, or VAR"
until Feb 28.  The number to call is 800-227-6303 (800-632-7979 in CA)
and ask for department 42.   Limit of one per company.

Is this for real?  Is the terminal any good?  $300 for a spare terminal
sounds like a good deal to me.  Do you suppose they can tell if
a company orders more than one saying it's for different divisions?
("I'm sorry, sir, but we have already sold one to IBM.")
