Try installing Oracle products on UNIX/Linux without X. Better yet, try
doing it on a remote machine on the other side of the world.
While KVMs like a Dell DRAC or Sun LOM, and virtualization consoles help
a lot, it's nice to be able to "ssh -X" to a remote machine and run that
installer back to my local VNC server.
If I had a decent X windows implementation locally, I'd use that instead
of VNC.
X had it's issues. But it's still alive and well - maybe because of Java ;)

does anyone know or care about network graphics any more? From what I
can tell, no.
