I like ncurses for presentations... and didn't even imagine a port for
it.  There's misc/tpp for FreeBSD and OpenBSD, although it requires Ruby
1.8.  Then there's mpd.

Weren't those specs for the Sega Dreamcast heavy for a game console in 1999?

Pretty cheap on ebay, and certainly would be an interesting platform for
the August installfest.
