I have this sinking feeling that this is a dumb question (no pun
intended, honest), but can anyone recommend a dumb terminal to connect
to my 3.4-STABLE box, as well as a vendor to supply said terminal? I
have one computer in my apartment (really no room for two), and my
wife and I spend most of our time waiting for the other to finish what
they're doing so we can get our time on the computer.
My needs are extremely modest. I write, and that's about it. My
high-tech multi-etc system is a glorified text editor, with plain-old
emacs sitting on the screen 99% of the time. The terminal must drive
a console-mode emacs, having the appropriate keys, and that's about
it. Monochrome green screen is fine. It would be nice if it was
fairly lightweight/mobile so I could string it out to the couch and do
my writing there while she's at the main console.
As it is, I spend an inordinate amount of time writing in a notebook
and typing it in later when the system is free.
Again, there really isn't room to set up another complete computer
system - the solution here must be fairly small.
Ideas? Thanks for your time.
