| I must be prehistoric as my first terminal was an ADM-3.
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ADM-3A) (The Unix shorthand of using the
tilde (~) for your home directory came from the ADM-3 keyboard having
the tilde on a key labelled "Home".)
My second terminal was the HP2621A.
(http://www.hpmuseum.net/display_item.php?hw=242)
After switching to a MS-DOS PC (running Telix and Procomm) I put the
ADM-3 up on a shelf connected to our Unix server running 'top' all day
so I could monitor the system.
Good times.
Shane.
