This sounds pretty cool. I have a couple of old DELL 630s that were automotive diagnostic computers, due to them being the last model with a real hardware serial port. Now I am thinking of reviving them with Linux, but just to host old windows VMs (all the auto diag software is windows only). Maybe I should give netbsd a try here.
Why would that be? Do you expect this to make your Windows VMs start up faster?
It won't. This applies only to NetBSD guest VMs.

great callout
Fun fact: NetBSD supports VAX 70/380 system from 1978/79!
That's the oldest known architecture that can run modern Unix. 32 bit, MMU, multi cpu: ahead of it's time.
So if you travel back in time: that's a safe platform if you would like to do some system programming with modern knowledge.

The website is ideal on phones without JS: there is a small, CSS based hamburger button at the bottom. I've long suspected that this is the only structure that makes sense, but I don't think I've ever seen in it the wild before.
