It is implement as a software for Windows and Mac (something is wrong here with the 
word Mac)... At this time, it is only DSL people such as Verizon, Earthlink, and so on 
are using it. I don't think Cable people are doing it. You can still get away with a 
full Linux PC but not with a floppy unless you play with it by LRP (Linux Routing 
Project). I hope this will help.
