But, those were 10Mb--and, 5 or 6 months after I wanted one
:)
Someone bought them all anyways around 11:30 Friday. I'd
have to imagine there'll be plenty more coming through,
though, as folks upgrade to 100Mb.
I must say I like the Linksys router/firewall--www.grc.com
sees no evil, and it seemed to me to configure relatively
easily. Plays nicely with the Win95/98 machines on the
network. (Nothing to report wrt Linux machines, though.)
