RE: HMC or LAN Console

I like the way you phrased that last line... since i'm choosing a computer
to manage my computers, I want to pick the best one, I guess... ;)

Was your twinax grief from a twinax console or support of a twinax
terminal environment?  I've run twinax consoles for years and enjoyed
the stability.  We still run a twinax console on a 530.   We love our
HMC-managed 570 and the advanced management features.  It has, however,
locked up once, crashed once and done some unpredictable things.  I
would never give up the HMC, but it does require its own updates,
maintenance, care and feeding.  I think a twinax console and spare
console on a shelf is a great way to go if you don't feel like managing
a computer to manage your computers.

True, hmc's and op's console almost never ever break compared to all the

grief we had with twinax.
