Forgettest thou not that this means that they have copied all the DEC
brain-damage, like the extra key between Z and SHIFT.  We looked at what
they were offering, looked at the prices, compared them to the prices of
new un-brain-damaged terminals, and said "forget it".  Even though we
do have a substantial collection of V-C museum pieces.
