A quick question for any starbase users out there: We are in need of drivers for a variety of non-hp display terminals. Notable amongst these are a Tektronics 4014 and regis (DEC) drivers. If anyone has ANY information about the availability of these drivers, please send mail and I will summarize to the net. We spoke with our sales rep today and he could not find any information one way or another. Thanks in advance, -- Joel Huddleston eka j1h9453@aim1.tamu.edu J1H9453@TAMVENUS.BITNET Does a vt220 terminal count as a diskless workstation?

You need the Starbase Driver Development Guide. The product number is 97009-10220, which contains a manual and a cartridge tape with demo drivers. Best regards, Rob
