Description:
The 2600A was HP's first CRT terminal, followed in the same year by the 2615A. It was introduced for use with the HP 3000. These terminals had 12-inch displays that showed 25 lines of text (80 columns). The resolution of the character cell was 5 x 7 dots. The 2615A had a detachable keyboard; the 2600A had a fixed keyboard. The museum does not have a sample of either terminal and is very keen to acquire one. Please contact us if you can assist.
