My “newest” computer, an Apple //c. Future serial console?

0

My home office 10 yrs ago in late 2001. I had two G3 Macs under the table, one connected to the two monitors on the left, and a 15″ Apple grayscale portrait on another desk for writing documents. The PowerMac 6100 on the desk was my version control repository running VOODOO and ran headless; I was using VNC on the Sun monitor (which you can see here) to access the 6100. There was also a 14″ CRT for a Linux console. The Sun machine was used as an X11 front-end for Linux work because XF86 was so unstable for me. A few months after this, a buddy gave me another 21″ Trinitron CRT because it was “too big”. Unfortunately, I don’t have any good pictures of those set-ups.

What is your question?
