(my office circa 1979)
I spy with my little eye a televideo 803 terminal, and what looks like a
hazeltine terminal, but the one at the chair with the square front I
don't recognize. The blue one, an IMSAI 8080? Under it DEC? To the far
left a televideo 1603? How many points do I get? :) Ric


the far right bottom beige unit is a Cromemco System Three beast, and the blue box above it is an Intel MDS800

the "terminal" on top of the Vector MZ in the middle background was just a crt+keyboard, attached to said Vector MZ's internal video card

I'm pretty sure the big square terminal in the middle foreground behind the phone is a Soroc (anagram for Coors)

The terminal on the table to the left was a Televideo, I dont remember the number, and the computer next to it is a early sample of a Tarbell S100 system.

All of these ran CP/M-80, as I was working at Digital Research on CP/M innards. Most of them had the max 64kbyte memory their 2 or 4Mhz 8 bit CPUs could address, and 2 or 4 diskette drives that held anywhere from 256K to 1MB each.
