There is a machine I keep which has a bunch of these devices, kept
precisely because of the devices it supports (which translates into
the reason I chose NetBSD in the first place - it runs on everything
without the need for me to go kernel-building every five minutes: I use
it to run my business, my business isn't running computers).
