Yes. I'm already booting NetBSD/hpcmips on it.... But that's another
thread all by itself...

Yes I know that, but you seem to be arguing that all terminals have 80
columns... This is not the case, although many of them do. I was
following your line of reasoning to its logical conclusion (since all
terminals have 80 columns, why do we need to tell the kernel how big
our terminals are).
I agree 100% that 80 shall be the default, since that's how wide these
things usually have been since 1890 and this man named Hollereth(sp?)...
I just want to make sure that I can change that default.
