I didn't see anything like a Teletype around 3:15, but at 3:35 there are five "Waterfall"
cabinets, each with four Model 28 printers.  Three of the cabinets have keyboards, and the
two closest ones have RO bases.   The Keyboard was 'switchable' to any of the printers,
and those not selected were connected to a line or a loop to not run open.

I saw one of them, back around 1969 in a guy's basement.  It was for sale, but I couldn't
even afford a simple KSR at that time, so the idea of getting three more printers was out
of the question!

There is another 'space shot' video showing a flock of RT Set cabinets.  I think it was
related to the Gemini project.  If I find it I will put it in here.  Or, someone might
beat me to it.

73,

Ralph - W8ROI
