Ann,
When I came to 3M from ITT Life Insurance (a subsidiary of The Hartford at
the time, if you remember) back in 1987, the best thing about the new job
was having a nice new 3290 on my desk. We removed all our 3174's probably
7-8 years ago, but my 3290 is still here! The screen is on my desk, and the
case (minus all the electronics) has been "re-purposed" as my footrest. 8-)
Best regards,
Mark L. Wheeler

They are finally getting rid of old 3174 control units and we wiill lose
our old 3290 local terminal.
We had set up it's big screen with 4 terminal sessions. 19" plasma screen.
A big deal at the time. It provided the anti-green screens. Kind of
orange-y amber. Supposedly better on your eyes. I can't really remember
how long we've had it.
