Mostly about screen memory which back then was small and not cheap.
True. Did the VT05 use core memory for that? I vaguely remember it did.
The VT05 used a shift register bank for the screen memory. This caused
delays when scrolling as the content of the shift register had to be
basically shifted up, thus requiring fill characters after every linefeed.
Still, one of the most gorgeous video terminals ever. :)
