- First, I'm NOT making a plug.
- I just got a blurb about a one slot Sbus card from Megatek called ESPRIX
- that says it has several software selectable resolution options
- (ie VGA and up).
- The other item was that the ESPRIX has a keyboard/mouse port builtin, so
- you can run four seperate keyboard&monitors off of a SPARC10.
