My terminal of Choice: Wyse WY-50.

1. They're cheap (they show up in thrifts for <$10)

2. Lots of places still repair them, parts are fairly
   easy to get.

3. I like the 'font' Wyse decided to use; its
   screen appearance is pleasant to me.

4. Easy to configure

5. Small, lightweight.

6. Comes in Amber phosphor, which I really prefer
   (although most of mine are green).

About the only thing I hate about it is that
more often than not, when these are offered for
sale, the keyboard is missing. Keyboards for these
used to be kinda scarce.
