Tech Laptop with DB9

You can pick up an old toughbook on eBay that have serial ports for 
reasonable prices. Put in flash disk and run linux for a reasonable 
experience. But for the height of convenience you cant go past an Air 
Console. http://www.get-console.com/airconsole/ Nothing beats being able 
to plug it in deep inside a rack and then walk back to a comfortable 
seat to work. Beats the cold data center floor any day!
