- IUP (Indiana University of Pennsylvania) had a _really_ niffty color
- graphic monitor. It was made by a company called Vectrix. It
- connected to the parallel printer port and had its own Z80 processor
- (intelligent peripherals - imagine that! :-)). It was controlled by
- sending ASCII command strings down the cable. It could handle 3D
- image definitions and motion.
