UK government and defence supplier Lynwood Scientific Developments Ltd, Alton, Hampshire has three new monochrome terminals available from Wednesday, with other colour versions now under development. The K300 is designed specifically for text and graphics, the K464 offers multiple Tandem emulation and the K300 CAT is a secure, controlled access terminal – no prices were given. Lynwood launched a series of Unix workstations back in May of last year and says it has sold over a thousand of the things into government and defence sites since their introduction, whilst the first commercial order – with a large insurance company – is waiting to be completed. Work is also underway with Motorola on the development of a 68040 version of the Open 30 68030-based workstations, although no date for a new machine has been disclosed. Now a member of the Hunting Electronics Group, Lynwood is run by David Prior, formerly at Prime Computer, who was appointed managing director last summer.
