J. B. Crawford on Nostr: incredible how all the "DIY"/raspberry-pi based IP KVMs are significantly more ...
incredible how all the "DIY"/raspberry-pi based IP KVMs are significantly more expensive than used commercial options. I know there are ways it's not a fair comparison, but $300+ for a PiKVM is outrageous when you can pick up an 8-channel Avocent with transceivers for less than that. I don't really get what the market for these projects is.
