I remember one place I worked where we ripped out all of the dumb terminals on a UNIX system and replaced them with Windows 3.1 PC's with terminal emulation. Productivity was noticeably down after the change.

> Productivity was noticeably down after the change. Can't play much Solitaire or Minesweeper on a UNIX dumb terminal... The most fun you can have is flying around in a 3D-rendered filesystem.

  80x24 is plenty of room for solitaire, and an ok minesweeper (bigger is nice though) If you've got a graphical terminal, like you'd need for your filesystem viewer, then you can do all sorts of stuff, of course.
