Yes, but at what baud?



Probably 4 digits. I was young and not a very fast typer yet. Zenith green phosphor terminals with a repeat key. This one or very similar https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Zenith_Z-19_Terminal...

According to https://vt100.net/heath/z19-om.pdf it can do 110 to 9600 baud. It was connected to some Z8000 based Onyx server. It was generally good but incredibly slow when more than four or five of us were compiling code for the tests at university class. Pascal, Berkeley p system or something with a similar name.
