the complete story)
| "why is the handset on the left of the monitor? shouldn't it be on the right?" (gid 8/22/2009 6:06:26 PM) |
| "most people would hold the phone with their left hand, and dial or write with their right hand" (um 8/23/2009 6:20:21 PM) |
| "I could probably help with a pic of either the Display Phone or DV-1 terminal. What are you looking for? and how badly do you need it?" (herenow 9/14/2009 1:38:10 PM) |
| "I just wanted it to add to the article; I worked for NT in Ann Arbor." (Bill Christensen 9/14/2009 6:51:52 PM) |
