I loved the 3290, it was the best ever device to design a nicely
readable report when configured in Cinemascope. Wish I could emulate it
on my large monitor.
Always wishing to push a limit I once split my 3290 into 4 screens, each
having a blinking Omegamon screen running. I could hear the little gas
gizmos complaining.

We had several of these. IBM 3290. Ours were coax attached to a couple of IBM
3174 Controllers. Black background, orange character set.

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.

Probably the last time they sold one. :-)
