I guarantee I can break this if I have access to add DNS records :)
You (and other interested parties) do not have that access, and it is not only a matter of admin access to DNS; there are other checks and balances in place too. But in principle, I do not doubt there are vulnerable points in this.

It is a validation, of sorts and it requires several things to be not wrong. I'm certain you can poke holes in it. The computer as worker node is expendable because there will be another one.

More 485 fun.

I was about to put my original parts mule back into storage and I noticed these 2 options listed and was curious as to what they were.

Option 4 is additional EMC shielding and option 78 is P11 (blue) phosphor! Really?

So I pulled the CRT which surprisingly isn't too difficult. Sure enough. TEK 154-0652-09. P11 phosphor. I'm going to transplant this CRT into one of my functional 485's.
