Yeah, well, you put your finger directly on the main economic question.

I _tend_ to side with the people who say de-minimus computers are now so
damned cheap that non-autonomous consoles don't make economic sense.
Having seen just how cheaply a Raspberry Pi 2 can be thrown into a
little plastic box with a little power supply, if someone offered me a
chance to invest in a firm manufacturing non-Linux-capable terminals
competing with them, I'd say 'You first.'

At the same time, if others want to try, I'm not opposed to that -per se-,
not that they're asking my opinion. Maybe they just happen to own a big
pile of terminals. ;->
