...on their PC ala your favorite unix workstation?  Check out this link:

It's an expansion card that simulates a MDA (monochrome display adapter.  
you know, the display on the original XT :) subsystem through a standard
16550-powered serial port.  What it means is that you can run your servers
without ever (almost...) having to plug that pesky monitor in.

Totally cool :)
