[PLUG] JetKVM


I just got one of these, and it is awesome!

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/jetkvm/jetkvm

$70 for a very effective remote KVM that can even reboot your computer and let you make changes to the BIOS because it's a hardware device, not software running on your system.

I'd been playing around with lots of remote access systems to control my server from my office, but they all seemed to stink in various ways.  This one is hardware-based, VERY low latency, and "just works".

It still has a couple of software quirks that are being ironed out.  The worst is a random MAC address with every reboot.  (A fix is almost ready for that).

And the tariff confusion is bonking the supply chain a bit, and will probably delay the next batch.

Highly recommended!
