RE: Op's console versus W2K SP4

[Chris Bipes <chris.bipes@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

What about a simple serial terminal such as the pSeries use.  Or a
connection for a monitor, keyboard, and mouse like most Unix / Linux boxes.
Don't need a GUI, character based is fine.

I vote for a built-in 3488(type) terminal.  That way all you have to supply
is a keyboard, video and mouse.

I see it as its own CTL01 on Port 0 Address 0 no others.

Too bad they quit making them.
