Ah, but do you notice any difference between the sizes of the monitors 
on each?

I've used many terminals, from a DEC VT05b and Behive to the VT520.  I 
do appreciate the LK keyboards.  I have little desire for any terminal 
ever again, except that they do make nice consoles.  The VAXstation 4000 
systems will hang without a connected console, so I have a VT520 for 
that system.

Guess I'm just not as stubborn as Phillip, as if anyone else could ever 
match him ....
