I'm being moved onto a 4d 386gvx, which is nice, except that 3 other people
use it, and we all need graphics.

Someone mentioned that I could buy an additional graphics board set from
SGI, plug them into the backplane, and hook them up to a new display and
keyboard, to get an additional real console.  Any thoughts on doing this,
or how much it would cost? Would it be better to get a Person Iris instead?

Thanks.
