Anybody collect old terminals?

Hey guys,
I've been into messing with old RS-232 terminals again recently. They're all "dumb" terminals, of course.. not full-fledged computers. Some of them have built in modems, but most just have a serial port for connection to a mainframe. I hadn't messed with most of them for over seven years! I traditionally use a modern Linux machine with a serial cable to allow them access to the Internet. I typically telnet into MUDs, MUSHes, or do some web stuff with Lynx. It's fun stuff.
Anyway, is anybody else into computer terminals?
