PLEASE POST if you know of such a thing!! We have numerous "Blit boxes"
here at Columbia, in the EE and (I believe) CS departments. They came as
part of an AT&T grant. Unfortunately, the 3B2's and 3B20's died a slow
death due to hardware failure and inadequate versions of System V that we
were able to obtain. A shame.
I think a large number of universities, also AT&T recipients, would be
grateful to find DMD code ported or placed on Suns.

PS: I have a copy of a termcap entry for this terminal if anyone is
interested. It is public domain (of course).
