Interesting -- my wife has been after me for some time to put a terminal
in the kitchen for recipes etc.  We just haven't come across any
suitable hardware for the purpose, *especially* given the insane lack of
space in our current kitchen (temporary-turned-indefinite living
quarters in a smallish, oldish doublewide trailer).

Irate people queueing outside the bathroom?  "Get off the pot already,
or I'll join the game and frag your ass myself!"   :)
