OK, now I have also laid claim to this blog, but it seems that it is still a long way until the IPO.

Driving up the price
More geek toys by way of Ebay
Today, I finally managed to get an item from Ebay that I have been coveting for many moons: an NCD MCX Xterminal
Since this is a used model, it comes without software, but a short email to NCD quickly got me a very positive response.

But they still have a knowledge base up, and there’s a mini HowTo for getting the NCDs to run with Linux.
A big shout goes out to NCD for not putting that old software out there so it can still be useful.
I know that I don’t really need one, but, damn, I want one, just for playing around with XDMCP, thin clients, and for general geek points
