ADM = ?

A search of terms (from archived material of comp.terminals &
alt.folklore.computers, et al.) reveals nothing definitive:

Archer Daniels Midland
American Dream Machine
Advanced Display Module
A Display Monitor
Advanced Data Manager
Awful Dumb Monitor
Absurdly Dense Minicomputer
A Devil in Masquerade

...any former LSI employees out there to help solve this mystery?


I've always felt this statement, printed in the ADM-3a manual, has only
added to the "classic" factor of these baby-blue CRTs:

Note: Lear Siegler does not service ADM-3A kits. If service or technical
assistance is needed, your local Dumb Terminal Dealer should be contacted.
