I am not sure about asterix but If you need something like webserver or samba or openVPN or transmission running on something like that, Linksys/ASUS have already done it for years. And they did it pretty cheap -- http://www.newegg.com/product/product.aspx?Item=N82E16833320023 . And you even have 4 LAN ports and wifi g on that thing!

I had a look at Beagle Board but also soon disappointed because that board doesn't have ethernet built-in. - H. On Tue, Feb 24, 2009 at 11:40 PM, L?
