I'm on a Net Mgmt project about to use UNIX (DEC RISC/Ultrix) and Xwindows. One Network Comm. Equip. vendor to consider is GDC (General DataComm). The console (and/or dialup term) of their all-purpose Controller (NMC-70) system is an Intecolor CT 427 color CRT (or less desirably, CT 210) Anyone here ever seen/heard of Intecolor and/or their color CRT? I'm guessing it's not compatible with anything else. I also assume that my chances of finding/buying Intecolor emulation for UNIX/Ultrix/Xwindows are slim to nil, since it's a color terminal. Pardon my pessimism. On the up side, I read this group daily and I enjoy the low noise ratio. A well-behaved group ! Thanks in advance.

Intecolor is "An Intelligent Systems Company" (part of the conglomerate that owns/owned Quadram). They make many different terminals. Some of them were at one time placed in control panels for nuclear plants (or so I have heard). I even wrote part of the ROM software for the Intecolor 2431 (a color terminal that was never released) :-( The Intecolor 2400 series are/were ANSI 3.64 terminals. Some of the later ones have a really nice setup system with menus that even I can understand. They also have a LOT of user-definable function keys. Some people report that they have HIGH reliability; other people cannot stand them! -- Kevin Kleinfelter @ Management Science America, Inc (404) 239-2347 gatech!nanovx!msa3b!kevin
