Ah, the retrographics board. This is an add-on for the DEC VT100
terminal, to allow it to emulate an old Tektronix terminal. The
slick thing about this is that you can have both displays visible
on the screen at the same time, AND the retrographics has an option
for displaying a raster image. OK, so its a monochrome raster
image,and the screen is generally green... I used to freak people
out by placing a picture of Mr Spock in the upper right corner of
the VT100's screen. Everyone KNEW this was impossible to do on a
VT100...
