We have a couple of liberty  terminals.   We have  a 220,  which is a
vt220 compatible, and a 240,  which is  a vt220  compatible + tek4014
graphics (NOT vt240 graphics).  The 220 is holding up  fine, and cost
us $360.  The graphics board in  the 240  (which is  made by Selanar)
has  gone  flaky,  but  we probably  fried it  (we have  a bad static
problem).  I like the terminals fine,  but I  don't have  any info on
Liberty.  Our  local dealer  switched to  being a  distributor, so we
haven't tried to find anything out yet.  The person with the graphics
terminal  has  been able  to live  with the  flakiness so  far, so we
haven't contacted them about repair, since we'd have to ship it back.
