There is an ARPA or private MIT collection of terminal reviews.
I think it would be neat to collect something like that on our net
which could then be desseminated, or just make it a normal news group.
The MIT thing I used when I last bought terminals and it was really great
-- I was looking in the 1400$ range though so I have no specific
recommendations.

I sold my Datamedia 3000 for an Ann Arbor Ambassador and have been
pleased with the results.  The big win, of course, is the larger screen
size.  This is extremely useful for programmers because it increases
context while debugging or writing programs.  Some have objected to the
slow phosphor but I don't mind it at all. I got mine for about $1100.
