Unrelated piece of fun info:
Sunday I went to a local motel with my girlfriend (I'm hosting two
ladies on my home and primitive noises may not be too comfortable for them).
When we were checking out, there was a monitor on the out with your bill
and...wow, it was a terminal, connected to some kind of *nix system,
everything was serial-based!!! I felt myself in 1980!!! :oD
Very interesting view :D
