Talk:DECwriter

“Supplants” probably should be “supplements.”

[edit]

In the description or caption for the first picture, it states that the Decwriter “supplants” the video terminal. I think the word wanted is “supplements.” In this context “supplants” would say that the printing Decwriter replaces or supersedes the video display terminal.

They are visually similar words, and I make this kind of mistake, so I understand it happening. RonBOakes (talk) 05:54, 7 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I agree, and have fixed this as part of a major revision. Reify-tech (talk) 21:39, 15 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
