Talk:VT320

Incorrect information[edit]

The VT320 do not have the multiple sessions features. This was introduced with the VT330. The is both a DB-25 and an MMJ connector, but you cannot use them both at the same time on the VT320.
You cannot split the screen horizontally, only vertically.
You cannot do full bitmap pictures on the VT320. While you can define soft characters, a character set is limited to 96 characters, which also is the limit on how many different "cells" you can use for your bitmap pictures.

You are correct. I think the fundamental error in this article is it keeps saying "VT320" when it means "VT340", which was a vastly different machine. (The VT340 was also the predecessor to the "low-cost" VT320, not the other way around as the article implies). I wonder if this incorrect information was originally a separate article for the VT340 and somebody merged it with VT320 thinking that, surely, if DEC's marketing named them something so similar, they must be identical or "close enough to makes no never mind".
