The VT525 wasn't a complete terminal, it was just a 'system' box and a
keyboard. You needed to connect your own colour display.

raspberry, it should be possible to build something similar with a
network interface for LAT/Telnet/SSH connections, and to use the USB
ports to connect the keyboard and a printer.
