Not bad (although the link is misspelled). My goal is to make a
"diskless" station, though I do have some flash to work with. I have an
old i-opener and a couple of the IBM netvistas that were acquired a
while back. Would like to do something like http://webconverger.com/,
but I want to attach a USB wireless NIC.
