The same thing was "wrong" (meaning that it
irritated me and offended my
sense of how things should be) as with the N*, in that they used memory
space I wanted to use. Consequently, I never seriously used, nor did I ever
promote them. It was no big deal, but at the time I thought that it was.
My solution was far more reasonable. Map it <VDM1> at 4000h and set a bit
to enable it (small hack). That way it used no TPA space and was still
faster than using a TTY. I later set up one of the NS* controllers that
way for a full 64k space. Of course I had to write my own drivers but it
was pretty trivial.
