I have no additional information as to whether or not Apollo changed the way TERM is set at SR10.3, but you all should note that it was mentioned in release notes some time ago (I don't remember which OS rev, sorry) that TERM was no longer going to accurately reflect the type of graphics controller and should not be used for that purpose. Apollo should probably hightlighted the change more strongly, this was a pretty small and obscure note. Someone with access to more OS releases than myself could probably find the exact words.
