@ploum this looks gorgeous!

Stupid open question that doesn't need answer: how much energy are these old terminal using compared modern hardware? Being frugal on the software resource usage is great but using an old machine that use 200W mostly to make heat might not be super efficient... (I know that not the point of using old terminal but still I wonder what the margin of energy efficiency)

@gdupont @ploum Those terminals draw about 60W of power; FWIW, my contemporary 4K display draws about 40W. So, the difference in energy efficiency is not too bad (and can you put a price on the difference in joy?).
