This lets me use a multihead console, which lets me run two X workstations in one pc. Two (or more) keyboards, mice and screens. But only one expensive mainboard, only one space-consuming case.
Great for home use, possibly at work too.
Those who care about clean code can enjoy the separation of framebuffer and console too.
