Quite interesting is the apparently bit-mapped dark-on-light ("paper green"?) monitor shown in that thread ("CMC DSKY And State Buffer Monitor"). Also interesting to see these various technologies side by side.

NASA surely must be a wild place - I wish I could work there. Must have been even wilder in the 60's and 70's with all that bleeding edge technology.
