Personally I like to have at least one hard-wired twinax connection that
is on the QCTL/controlling subsystem.  The rest can be
Ethernet/twinax...

among other anti-Twinax drivel, some of it quite venomous.



I have yet to see a terminal emulator (the one I designed 
and helped write INCLUDED) that can come close to 
performing as well (and looking as good) as the real 
thing. Especially a 3487-HC. Ask not why anybody still 
uses Twinax, but why IBM would so completely abandon such 
a robust, practical, user-friendly standard.
