I think you're falling foul of Deborah's inability to communicate again. 
  I think she meant to say that the console is dumb, not dead.  In a 
very strict sense that's almost true, but since we've been using 
"console" interchangeably with "terminal emulator" throughout this 
discussion, it's hilariously wrong.
