Your reference mentions a 3277-3 shortly after the line you quoted. I don't
recall that one. I think I remember a 3275-3 - or was that the model number
of the copy printer, a 3284 maybe, you could attach to the 3275?

Incidentally a college friend I caught up with last year - after about 30
years - confided in me that Wikipedia contained incorrect information for a
maximum of 40 minutes. This perhaps is not the appropriate statistic for
Answers.com - and - I bothered to check - neither is it even appropriate for
Wikipedia since the same duff information can be found there also. Having
been a teacher, I can recognise "copying" when I see precisely the same
pattern of mistakes repeated. <g>

That's what I thought, too, but Googling 3270 "Model 1" results in several
hits showing 16x40.    For instance,

http://www.answers.com/topic/3270
   3277 model 1 : 16×40 terminal

They could be using the same incorrect source, of course.  Or they could
be talking about physical size including spacing, OIA line, etc., but
that shouldn't take 4 lines.  I haven't been able to find any IBM doc
on Mod 1, but I'm sure it exists.
