Each 'port' has 2 meg of memory. I'm a bit short on FreeBSD machines with graphics heads so I've not tested them yet. Relating to this subject the old HP9000/300s could do this trick (2 seats for a single machine). Some of the kit SGI sold for the old Onyx boxes could do this as well. -- | Matthew N.
