yes indeed it is good to  see more teletypes ok  then here  we  go...
 
we need a photo   of the   setup....
 
guess a 15 or 19 has to move into the computer  display now  too  EH?

We may never know... IBM loved their EBCDIC, but machines like the  
Burroughs and RemRand could be operated in straight binary, BCD, XS-3BCD(for  
Univac), etc. Since these console TT's weren't part of the regular I/O  channels 
like later 8-bit machines, they could really be anything the  designers 
dreamed up. Still, neat to see the TTY hardware no matter the code.  -C

Ok, found the source for the UNIVAC 3. Take a look at the console  section- 
they call out the M28 specifically. Makes sense given the  distance between 
the print unit and the keyboard. What a sharp  console!

A few more entries in the 'What computers used an M28 as console  
equipment' category...
 
Just reading through a few issues of Datamation 1961, the  Burroughs B-5000 
features a table top model prominently for operator  I/O (not a skin-tight, 
either), and if I hadn't read it in the manual,  I wouldn't have known it, 
but the UNIVAC III uses the guts of an M28  sunken into its sleek, 
formica-topped operator console.    -Cory
