	All fine and good, but this is *still* well above $1K, which
is about all many employers(including mine) will spend for a
terminal/workstation. So, until the price for a DMD equivalent is <
$1K it will be necessary to put up with supporting 24X80 terminals! I
would certainly like to *try* a windowing system on my ADM-11!
