Um... Define work. As long as you have a way to connect it you can use it
as a terminal for the VAX. OTOH, it can't be the system console.
I'm not sure I agree with the last bit. The VAX 8600 didn't have any
graphics console, but instead used a serial console. You can use any
supported ASCII terminal for that console. I've seen VT100s, VT220s
and the like used on 8600 and 8650 machines, so I see no reason why
one couldn't use a VT320. The boot roms will support it, and
VMS/Ultrix/NetBSD/OpenBSD all have excellent support for the VT320.
