And, just to top off the ironic-meter: the Linux box? It's a quad-socket, dual-core-per-socket, Itanium system, with 16 GB of RAM. This monstrosity has the same L1 cache as the Macintosh has system RAM, more L2 cache than both floppy drives' capacity combined, and more L3 cache per CPU than all storage on the Mac put together, including the HD20! Just the on-CPU caches combined is more than 100 MB of RAM.
Holy cow! People are still buying Itanics? That's unbelievable!

Just curious - why run a different port of Lynx when you could run Lynx directly or links? If you're running Lynx (not sure about ELynx), then you can use the "-vikeys" option so you can move around without arrow keys.

In any case, an original Mac makes for a fine retro glass terminal experience. One of these days I'm going to do the same with a Sinclair QL and a VT100 terminal program I wrote back in the 1980s...
