[ANSI X3.64, the only way to go]

I will be getting a BEEHIVE ATL-008 for a couple of months to evaluate.
From what I have so far it looks like a winner. [I have been evaluating
X3.64 terminals for over a year now]. I am most interested in users that
will be taking advantage of it's down loadable firmware capabilities.

For those who don't know what the ATL-008 is; it is an ANSI X3.64 terminal
with a Motorola MC68008 processor with 128kbytes of memory. The only thing
missing is not being able to change the fonts, i.e. they are in ROM not
RAM, and the cell resolution is a little poor, 9x13. But for $1500-1750
list, not bad.
