> This isn't the "micro" flavor, it's the full-tilt-boogie edition :)

> WiFi signal and distribute that to up to four Ethernet-connected
> PCs/XBoxes/whatever.
>
> This can be flashed from a standard Linux web-browser like Firefox
> 3.0.1 in Ubuntu Hardy (that's what DD-WRT was put in with, by me).
> Can be re-flashed to Tomato or other FOSS firmware sets:

Hi Jim, if nobody else has yet claimed it, I would like to have it.

Sometimes I wonder.  Were our faith able to stand upright and look around, would it be looking down at the mustard seed or standing in awe of the height and breadth of it.
