I've used VT100s, VT220s, VT320, VT420, VT525s, and various Wyse gear.
In the VT series, I've two favorites--the VT320 w/LK201 keyboard would
be the first. The second is the VT525 because it takes a standard SVGA
monitor and PS/2 style keyboard. Another nice thing about the VT525 is
all the various ISO character sets it supports by default which include
Cyrillic, Hebrew, Greek, and Turkish.
Many of the VT series have graphic plotting capabilities and they've
also got sixel graphics modes. And don't forget the GIF viewer for
VT320 terminals:
