My dad had one of those, it was all weird, and big. The screen was black and orange, and there wasn't much you could do on it ha ha, but I liked playing "Where in the World is Carmen San Diego", it was a game for it.
I don't remember what the machine was called though.
Is there a good docking station to use with my Aspire 7720

Have you ever had to work overnight where you don't work, or got a 1 night job? I have, a New Years Eve Concert on piano at a $50mil HOTEL.

You're reading Did you ever use those big, heavy "all-in-one" monitor/keyboards - Workstations, I believe they were called. Not self-contained computers? Green or Amber screen? ;-) Do you remember what it was?

Yeah... That's all they had at Purdue, well before the internet. And afterward, they and many businesses kept them for a long time, connected to their mini-computers (PDP-11s, VAXes, S38s, etc.), because it would be so expensive to switch to the more sleek monitors, or more expensive PCs. Besides, at the time, MACs and PCs were a "fad"... They'd die out, right? LOL
Thanks, Chainsaw ;-)
