    the 3 pin plug is the terminal connection??

    Yes that is the debug uart, you can use to install ubilinux via serial and also to access the bios menu

    thanks...
    i haven't looked at ubilinux yet.. i wanted to see how well the full server distro of ubuntu ran first. i might try widows 10 next. then maybe a thin client, to compare that to my Rpi3.
