As IBM was planning to phase out the 3163 terminals, they were working on
a follow-up terminal. They are offering a 3151 with an ALA character set
cartridge--just as cheap as the 3163 terminals. I know it was tested in
libraries--including Northwestern. Maybe your IBM rep is not familiar with
the product line.
