In the past, all computers I have ever bought have always had an
option to ignore missing video cards or keybaords.

However it would seem that this functionality has been done
away with.

Yes, I could buy a keyboard, and put it on the machine, but why?
It's a headless machine and I really don't have the space for
such things.

Surely someone out there has exprienced this problem in the NetBSD
community.  What solution did you use?  Get a new BIOS?  Just get
a keyboard?  I'd be intersted in knowing...
