Console options for legacy-free mini-itx server?

Hi there, I've replaced my old desktop with a laptop and a server, which is mostly working great. Naturally, the server is running FreeBSD-stable. It's built on an intel i3 MiniITX motherboard that has lots of SATA sockets, a respectable number of USB sockets, gigabit ethernet, eSATA, DVI, ... b

It's been suggested that I make the output of dmidecode (from ports/sysutils), pciconf -lv and dmesg.boot available, to help answer my previosu question. Since all of that output is relatively small and I don't really have a good web site to put it, I'll just include it, below. Hope this helps!
