Yep. A direct application of this would be serial line access to
consoles over an ssh connection.

Would need a motherboard capable of console over serial port (my 4 dual
PIII 1.4GHz systems do, Tyan) and enough serial ports on a separate
machine to accept the data. Now pump the data streams through multiple
tunnels and direct their final output to screen for viewing multiple
consoles.

The _really_ fun part of this project was when I found out the maximum
speed supported by the obnoxious DOS app is 28.8k AARRGGHH!!! NO WONDER
IT'S SO SLOW!!!!
