I forget, but the only big plotter was an EIA attached to a PDP-8 over in the Chemistry building. So I'd have to run the simulations on the mainframe and write the output to DTR and carry them over to the Chem lab. They didn't like me 'cause they couldn't play 'Duck Hunter' while the plotter was running. In a message dated 11/27/2017 12:56:49 AM Central Standard Time, martin_pac...@uk.ibm.com writes:
At UCL in the early 1980’s we had Tektronix graphics terminals that were exactly as you said. Exotic and scarce devices, fun to watch :-) , compared to the character-based terminals we all had access to.
