I'm getting a new-to-me dot-matrix printer (Epson LQ-2080) delivered tomorrow. Next week I expect a VT-520. I wonder how many VT-520s a modern computer could support? When people had terminals instead of computers on their desks, how big was a computer with 2 GB ram and 500 GB hard drive space and the power of a modern CPU (e.g. Athlon64)? Then again, I tried to find an off-the-shelf good quality simple PS/2 keyboard today with no luck. I want quality but without the noise of an IBM model M. Times change.
