And my ALIX based boards with 1" microdrives run just as well as a
router, plus I got a CVS mirror on it, NFS server, and I will be
adding webserver and maybe mail to it too.  They're not GHz machines,
but for a routing platform, how often do you even hit 200MHz?  The
500MHz ALIX board is doing beautifully for me.  silent, too.


Have a good weekend, all.
