: The LCD display on Dell boxes was programmed by the 386BSD 0.1 boot to
: say something like "GO!!!".  I can't rememebr for sure.

The old Solbourne S4000 machine had a place you could plug in a device
to decode the POST, or other status messages.  When it was at the rom
prompt waiting for input, it would say FEED and then FACE and then
