Reliable terminal emulation in the modern age?

Is there such a thing as a working, usable terminal emulator? I'm  
simply attempting to do some remote serial console work on a couple
of servers, specifically in the BIOS. I'm finding this to be an  
almost impossible, and certainly unenjoyable experience. My main  
platform
is OS X, on which I've tried both Terminal.app and iTerm, to no  
avail. Not to be outdone, I've found putty on windows, and X windows  
on Linux
to be equally broken.  Does anybody have an idea on a reliable  
terminal emulator for any of these three platforms, that just works,  
without hours
and hours of fiddling? Free, commercial, if it works, I'm happy.
