Boy, I'd hate to be on your network and have to do some research on irritable bowel syndrome.
Yep, instead of $140 for this, I'd find an old laptop with a broken screen. More power and expandability for cheaper.
Yeah, no kidding. The last time I ate my girlfriend's mother's cooking (see why I'm posting anonymously?) I got food poisoning and had to do a Google search for "how to stop vomiting" from my iPhone at 3:00 AM, typing with one hand, with my head over the bowl. On a restricted network, I might have been trapped there all night.
I think they're just trying to capitalize on the face the code is open-source
What the hell is wrong with that? Better than trying to make a profit from stomping bunnies! Think of the children!

20ish models there?
Please rephrase that when referring to ROUTER MODELS. I click on that link so fast the mouse button cracked, and there was not a single hottie on that page.
It is dangerous to be right when the government is wrong.
Yeah, I know! Tell me about it. I'm forever moving country and carrying my network infrastructure with me. I mean, this 32U rack is killing me, good job it doesn't require to be plugged in though.
