Future Linux machines?



I think we've beaten the subject up enough, but IMHO I tend to agree with 
Bob. As I mentioned, the firewall only needs a 10 Mbps NIC (2 realistically 
although through subnetting you can actually get away with one). I would 
tend to disagree with JABR that this would not make a good file server in 
most cases.
