  The IBM 2250 Display Unit
The IBM 2250 Display Unit was originally shipped with the IBM 1130 computer, introduced in 1965.
Columbia's 2250 was intended for use by physicists to read, display, and interact with cloud chamber photos, from ongoing physics experiments in the machine room (the 360/91 was largely paid for from physics research grants).
IBM followed the 2250 with a 3250 vector graphics unit, and later (mid 1980s) by the 5080 raster graphics station.

 IBM 2250
The IBM 2250 Graphics Display Unit was announced as part of System/360 in 1964.
The 2250 was housed in a desk with an alphanumeric (QWERTY) keyboard and a separate programmed function keyboard which had keys, indicator lights and switches.
An IBM 2285 Display Copier could be attached to the 2250 to provide 8-1/2 by 11 inch hard copy of the display contents under operator control.

 IBM 2250 Display Unit
The IBM 2250 Display Unit, Model 4 (Figure 68) is a cathode-ray tube display unit that attaches to the IBM 1130 Computing System.
This command causes the 2250 to send a device status word (Figure 69) to the 1131, where it is loaded into the accumulator.
If the 2250 is enabled for light pen detects when a detect occurs, the address in the first initiate read response word depends on the type of data detected.

IBM agreed to let them install it at the IBM Field System Center in Atlanta for three months while a new computer room could be built in tunnel 2 of the B-1 building at Lockheed.
The school only had one 2250 connected to the control unit so I did not recognize the fact that when we got our machine with three displays I would not be able to take the panel offline to work on one display without killing the other two.
The 2250 Displays were put in the corner closest to the B-1 building as the connecting cables could only be 2000 feet.

In 1960, GMR formed an alliance with IBM to construct a special graphics system to facilitate digital design and milling.
To this end, IBM built a “Graphic Expression Machine” (also known as the DAC-1 system, delivered in 1963) for the automaker by adding a special data channel, display unit and adapter, and photo recorder/projector/scanner onto a standard IBM 7094 mainframe and 7960 image-processing system.
The 2250 graphics console was introduced in 1964 as part of the IBM System/360 product launch.

By the mid-1960s I was involved in the Share (IBM User's Group) specification of a new programming language that eventually became PL/I. In 1968, the first PL/I-F compiler arrived at UCLA where I was now working in the Anatomy deparment as a programmer.
These changes were eventually adopted by IBM and included as a standard part of their compiler.
In 1972, several students working with me revised and extended the original PL/OT language which was based on the IBM 2250 display station to work on general graphics devices.

THE textile designer of the future may discard his paint brush and graph paper for a pen that "writes" with light on an "electronic drawing board" linked to a computer, IBM's public relations officer in Australia, Mr Henry Strasburger, has reported.
Mr Strasburger says the new technique, called textile graphics, has been developed by IBM, which has demonstrated the technique to the textile industry in New York.
The new technique enables the designer to display an artist's sketch on an IBM 2250 display unit, a television-like device linked to an IBM System 360.
