console
     
        1. The operator's station of a {mainframe}.  In times past,
        this was a privileged location that conveyed godlike powers to
        anyone with fingers on its keys.  Under {Unix} and other
        modern {time-sharing} {operating system}s, such privileges are
        guarded by passwords instead, and the console is just the
        {tty} the system was booted from.  Some of the mystique
        remains, however, and it is traditional for {sysadmin}s to
        post urgent messages to all users from the console (on Unix,
        /dev/console).
     
        2. On {microcomputer} {Unix} boxes, the main screen and
        keyboard (as opposed to character-only terminals talking to a
        {serial port}).  Typically only the console can do real
        graphics or run {X}.  See also {CTY}.
