But the weirdest one that I've ever seen looked like two 3278-2 set one on top of the other. I can't find the model number. It had a single screen that looked about as wide as a 3278-2 and about 2 times as tall as wide. I think it could be configured as one monitor which was _really_ deep. I would guess 48 or 50 data lines. -- Advertising is a valuable economic factor because it is the cheapest way of selling goods, particularly if the goods are worthless. -- Sinclair Lewis Maranatha! <>< John McKown ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
