Sounds a lot like 3290, which was very much an IBM device. Had a large gas 
panel display with orange on black. (Netflix anyone?) Configurable in various 
ways as you describe.

OK, this is sorta OT, but related: in the late 1990s I had the pleasure of 
working for a while at a customer site. Some of the time I used a 
coax-connected device with a large (for the time) screen that could either 
support four 3279 sessions at once, or one 3279 session that took the whole 
screen (you could switch modes; in single-session mode, you'd then cycle 
through the sessions). The single-session mode was great late at night when 
very tired.

Anyone remember this device? It wasn't IBM.
