You buy a feature that determines if you have a PC console or a twin-ax
console.  The PC has to be hooked up directly with a PC cable to a PC port,
no token-ring for the console.  Be sure to order the correct feature when
ordering the system.  This is a big source of confusion when ordering Model
600/S10 which are also all PCI bus.
