I would like to use serial-console code for my router (486/33, 8MB, etc) in the basement. I don't have a monitor for it, but I *do* have a vt330 in my room (50 cable-ft away). Serial-console would be extremely handy, though not *absolutely* necessary. I could just cart my Dad's 40lb. monitor down to the basement if the networking code in the latest kernel fails. ;-)
