No, that would be stupid, but I also wouldn't advise someone to get a SOHO
device for a 250 person network.  Talk about bad judgment.

I would look at hosted solutions for a 5 person office and not waste their
money on expensive server hardware.

Your problem is one of a lack of vision.  You see Google doing something and
therefore, everyone should be able to do it.  Never mind the cost and
complexity, if you don't do it, then you're a poopy-head, and a stinky one
at that.  Your Linksys example is prime example of that very limited
perspective.

Big boys look at the complete picture and recommend a workable solution with
budgets and resources in mind, rather than fake it and condescend to those
not implementing the latest thing you read about in magazine.
