Yowch, $600?? Nifty card though ... from checking the web site, it
*looks* like it primarily acts as the equivalent as a video card, no? In
fact, the photo on the web site seems to show a VGA connector on the card
too? So unless you are looking at X, I can't see why it wouldn't work ...
But ... depending on how many servers you are using, have you looked into
the remote KVM-over-IPs you can pick up? They seem to be alot cheaper,
but only if you are dealing with multi-servers remotely ...
