i agree with this and think also that there are less full figured
(although less sexy ?:) distros/setups that would fit the job perfectly
and require less resources.
Senseless abstract OT example:
{
Like don't install 1.6GB of mdk shit on a machine to be used soley as a
LinuxROUTER. You can boot a specialized distro just for that off a
f*ing floppy, no hd required!
}
So so tired
