    Does anyone know how noisy or expensive is the Shanghai Transrapid?

    Once upon a time, I had my P233 box setup at home It did the following:
    1. NAT
    2. Fileserver
    3. Web server
    4. Record Caller ID of incoming calls
    5. Monitor temperature and light intensity in the room.
    6. Control lights in the house using X10.
    I used Apache, PHP and mySQL to orchestrate the whole thing. It had a web user interface to remotely view the Caller IDs, temperature/light values and also to switch ON and OFF lights (I drove my roommate nuts once with this feature)! The hardware required was a modem and X10 Firecracker which connects to the serial port.

    Those were the days!
