Sorting through stuff in our garage, I found a spare keytop. Should I ever need to switch between 110 and 300 baud in the future this'll come in handy.
I think they may have come off a DECwriter.

I programmed on one of those #DecWriter terminals...
I still get nightmares about line editors.

💡🖨️ For terminal access, you don't even need a monitor. Ancestor of this dot matrix printer with a keyboard, the DECwriter III, had its roots in teleprinters, which evolved from telegraphy. This model dates back to 1977 and supports only the more modern RS-232 standard with a maximum speed of 9600 bit/s.

I took my first uni #CS course as a night class while I was in high school. We used #DECWriter #printer #terminals connected to an ancient #VAX - the terminals were laughably out-of-date even at that time (mid-#80s).
They could only print 30 chars/s, so they topped out at 300 baud.
Good riddance to line editors!

I have a pair of vintage terminals I've hooked up to wifi to my hosted HP2000 emulator. Good times! #ASR33 #DECwriter -
@thomasbeagle The first time I ever used a modem, there was a tractor feed line printer connected to it on my end. #DECwriter

What is #crypto? #BloombergNew seems to think it involves a #VAX-11/780 and a #DECWriter III tho’…. Weird.
