What do you mean 'all three?' What about us OpenVMS users, huh? =]
But then, we've had Ethernet to serial devices in the form of DECservers
for decades. Yeah, they're the size of a PC, but only about twice the
price, and they support DECnet LAT!
Seriously, there are a couple of other operating systems relevant to ham
operations, but I think most of them can be made to work with Ethernet
serial servers. I've had good luck with those made by Black Box, though
there are probably cheaper solutions.
And I can say from experience that those work just fine under OpenVMS as
well. =]
