Does anyone have any comments about the newish Wyse 160 terminals, especially as to how they compare with the older WY99GT (in emulating VT220's and the Tek 4010)? I know the WY99GT has an interpretation of the "dark vector" in 4010 mode that is different from (better than, if you want to delete specific stuff on a screen) others. Does the WY160 do this? Are they reliable? (We've had heaps of problems with WY99GT power supplies & capacitors lately, that makes me reluctant to buy more Wyse stuff, but they do seem to be cost-effective, and perhaps more rugged). Any comments gratefully appreciated. Mark Aitchison, Physics, University of Canterbury, New Zealand.
