Not entirely. While we clearly don't need rows of terminals, I regret
the dropping to zero. Sometimes one is at an IETF meeting without a
laptop for reasons outside one's control, and having one or two
terminals
in the terminal room would be useful. (This last meeting I managed with
a borrowed laptop and an iPhone - incidentally am I the first person to
have taken the minutes of a WG on an iPhone?)
