At $250 for 2Mbs, assuming it's full-duplex, and has a genuine lack of
data cap it would be very attractive to businesses who struggle under
the silly ADSL plans available, as many clock up $400-$500 a month
without breaking a sweat.
Probably a bit steep for most home users, but depending on the

There is currently plenty of fibre around the place,

Have you tried using Swat to set up your Samba

Just enable in Xinet.d
(edit the file /etc/xinet.d/swat and change the disabled line to no)
and restart Xinetd
Then point your browser at http://127.0.0.1:901
Log on as root, then you have a graphical setup
No, its more an ip phone app, with conferencing like netmeeting.
thanks though.

It looks like lshw is the winner. It provides useful information without being too
verbose. Output is html, its easy to read and easy to understand.

No doubt Kerry can handle that. If one wanted to catalogue the guts of
all PCs in some organisation, a little scripting to feed it into
