DEC VT180

The VT180 was a video terminal produced by Digital Equipment Corporation of Maynard, Massachusetts.1

An extension of their existing line of VT100 terminals, this version integrated a Z80 microprocessor and two (or four) external 5.25-inch floppy disk drives. It ran CP/M software and was codenamed "Robin".

Digital later released a full-fledged PC known as the Rainbow-100 as the successor to Robin.

When Digital ended the VT100 family, it also discontinued Robin. No direct replacement was offered, although the Rainbow 100 eventually provided a superset of Robin's functionality.
