About This Item

TB Digital VT100

The VT100 was a video terminal made by Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC) which became the de facto standard used by terminal emulators. Digital Equipment Corporation was a pioneering company in the American computer industry. It is often referred to within the computing industry as DEC. Its PDP and VAX products were arguably the most popular mini-computers for the scientific and engineering communities during the 70s and 80s. DEC was acquired by Compaq, which subsequently merged with Hewlett-Packard. As of 2005 its product lines were still produced under the HP name. For many years its headquarters was in an old woolen mill in Maynard, Massachusetts.
