New Re: I used a real VT320 for a while in a previous job.
I use a 320 regularly, and I think it's OK, but I wouldn't describe it as 'verra nice".

I reserve that assessment for the 510, which is the king of dumb terminals. The 320 is, however, better than the 410 because the 410s are always very dim.

(The 340 is OK, but it is enormous and the screens are always deconverged.)
