to poor of service from my provider and to much trouble to bother attempting to sort it out with them.
I might look at getting one of these when I gets a job after graduation. If it consumes less power than my laptop in overnight hauls, then it's ideal.
Wow, you're right. The article I saw was way off.Foo wrote:I saw $250

Re: I'll take 5.....
I'm fairly confident of asus' abilities. The kind of architecture we're looking at here is more or less a motherboard with integrated peripherals (oxymoron?), something they've been churning out for years.+JuggerNaut+ wrote:yeah, saw this rss the other day. awesome idea, but i don't know Asus products well enough to trust its reliability.Foo wrote:This thing looks dope:

There's some criticism of the firmware, which will hopefully improve. Otherwise, looks great.
Can't justify a purchase right now though, even if it was shipping in the UK. Wishlist material.
aye, same - but a 'simple' low-power device to handle torrents and large downloads would be great, instead of having to leave a pc on all night - even if you didn't use it as a router.duffman91 wrote:I've never really liked all in one hardware. I seriously want my router to do nothing more than route, NAT, and possibly firewall.
Cool idea though.

ya, i think it's sexy, although for those that want to wait until N gets ratified (which should be 1st quarter 2007) they'd probably want to wait.
