I am interested in getting a micro for use at home as a terminal to dial into our computers at work (and of course for use also as a personal computer). Any suggestions/caveats? An absolute must is 80 chars by at least 20 lines, capable of generating the entire ascii character set, able to emulate some known "intelligent" terminal enough to use screen editors (emacs) on the remote system at 1200 baud, and a decent enough keyboard to be used a LOT without aggrivation. Oh yeah, and price IS an object! I would appreciate any and all info on what hardware and software is available, and especially any comments from people using their micro for this. Send replies to me and I'll post a summary to the net (if there are any replies). THANKS! -Dan Chernikoff (dfc@sri-tsc)
