As new Dreamcast games are rather scarce these days, it has been given the great honor of running Potato. :) I've been thinking about setting up Apache on it to do some limited web serving, but I haven't gotten around to it yet. First I need to figure out how to get it to boot from an NFS mount. Burning a new CD each time I make a change is getting costly. (Not to mention hideously repetitive.) > Do any of the computer not require a console? You can use a serial console > to do that, if thats the case. Well, getting the monitor, keyboard, and mouse to switch between setups would be more of a convenience than anything else. One of the computers is my all-purpose desktop which gets 99% of my time, one is a P133 functioning as a mailserver which I have no problem telnetting into, and one is my laptop which I just hate having to keep moving 75 degrees to my left to look at. :) The Dreamcast is the only thing that really REQUIRES any cables to be moved, and I don't use it all that often. That's one of the reasons that spending a good deal of money on a KVM isn't really an option. -Alex
