VT100 User Guide

vt100-1.jpg vt100-2.jpg DEC VT100 user guide ca. 1978. That cover is vaguely reminiscent of the Eames Aluminum Group catalog from a while back and they’re even rocking some Avant Garde. The funny part about all these great vintage computer documents is that some engineer probably designed them as an afterthought on his day off.

i think alot of iconic stuff comes about when no one is trying to think of it. its their primal artful-ness speaking volumes about how they actually think. its pretty wonderful. the same can be said about jazz to a certain extent.
