X just froze on me a few minutes ago.  No problem I figured, I'll
log in from another machine.  It was hung for about 5 minutes.  I don't
know why it occurred to me, but I remembered that I'd taken the parallel
printer offline.  I hit the online buton, and X *immediately* came
back.

Is something seriouisly wrong?  How could this happen? I'm sure it 
never would have occurred to me to even consider the printer if 
that wasn't how the old 8 bits worked (ok, CPM eventually added a 
timeout, but that was a later version than anyone used :)
