We've had several Wyse 60 terminals spontaneously combust also, as well as other Wyse models (I believe 75's or 85's, but I don't think 50's). One of my co-workers came from a company where many Wyse terminals were used, and says they either last forever or burn up - nothing in between. I also hear that Wyse support is pretty bad. But as long as I don't smell smoke, I'm happy with my 60. -- Steve Sapovits || uucp: steves@hutch.UUCP Sr. Member of UNIX Tech Staff || ...!uunet!cbmvax!hutch!steves Rabbit Software Corporation || Malvern, Pa. ||
