the really good ones have a serial port for their management. I used 
one of those interfaces on a nortel concintrator once and it was 
pretty cool.

I forgot to mention an important fact in the 1.3.67 announcement. In order to 
get a fully working kernel, you have to follow the steps below:
 - Walk around your computer widdershins 3 times, chanting "Linus is
   overworked, and he makes lousy patches, but we love him anyway". Get
   your spuouse to do this too for extra effect.  Children are optional.
 - Apply the patch included in this mail
 - Call your system "Super-67", and don't forget to unapply the patch
   before you later applying the official 1.3.68 patch.
 - reboot
