We at NCAR are looking for a color hardcopy device for our graphic output with the following qualities: - At least 500 X 500 resolution - Speed: less than a minute for a page would be nice - Reliability: frequent breakdowns don't go. - Cost: preferably under $10K, but if you know of one for more that is really good, please pass the info on anyway. Currently we have a couple of Tektronics 4107 terminals with attached plotters. They (the plotters) are simply unacceptable, since (1) they take 10 minutes to make a copy of the screen, and (2) they are incredibly flakey, breaking down 2-3 times per week. Many thanks for any info you could provide. -- Jonathan Corbet National Center for Atmospheric Research, Field Observing Facility {seismo|hplabs}!hao!boulder!jon (Thanks to CU CS department)

Make sure you get one that matches your video frame rate etc.
