Vick - Newer hardware tend to have VGA because chipset manufacturers (Intel/Nvidia etc) can throw in a VGA on cheap. If you polled random 100 people they will all tell you hooking up a monitor is easier. The whole purpose of pfsense is providing an ease of use. It appears m0n0wall now has VGA and hopeflly pf will too. Its a stretch to claim universe resembles *your* collection of embedded boxes. In circa 2010 even die hard geeks will agree that for majority of people, including geeks, having VGA interface is easier.
I have a huge respect for leaders like you, who make such strong vibrant pfsense community possible. However, I will be less than honest if I did not wholeheartedly disagreed. Because I am a fan of pfsense, I eagerly hope that VGA interface will bubble up to top when folks have some spare bandwidth. I will be patient till then.
