Woof! That's beefier than I expected. The data sheet says that it
draws 25W for which I expected a 2.5A - 3.0A PSU. I have a couple
of unboxed switching supplies that are 12V-only (eliminating the
problem of PeeCee supplies and dummy loads)... probably start there.
It'll be nice to get a semi-portable supply of some kind, though. I
want to haul this thing to the servers in a laptop case.

Plenty of room in a VT-100... kinda like a DECmate I. I was thinking
of rackmounting my second one in a 1U case - I have these old DEC 12U
(21" tall) formica-topped enclosures that originally came with PDP-11s
in them (11/03 + RX01) Plenty of room for anything else I'd want, and
a place to put the terminal on top.
