- I thought I'd already posted this, but... someone does make it. It's the
- Lantronix EPS-2, One serial, One parallel, inexpensive (390 UK pounds here),
- multiprotocol (includes appletalk), and the size of a cigarette packet.
-
- I can't vouch for this product (don't yet have one), but I have been very
- impressed by other Lantronix servers all of which offer more functionality
- for less money than DEC ones do. (As well small boxes with no fans).
