" Very nice to save space on the desk or lab bench,
each one stood in for 4 terminals in our test stations. we didn't
have room for that many terminals!

i don't remember starlan, but then our bldg didn't have a network when
'our' 5620s were new.
" I remember white CRT phosphors as well, so maybe this was a 730 or 730+?
yup. 5620s were all a high-burn-resistant green but 600/700 series
could be green, amber, or white. ours were amber.
the 630/730 could have a 10bt ethernet card. could that be what you're
thinking of?
