I run a sparc IPX with NetBSD as my firewall. I
use the serial console
so that I don't have to have a big non-multisync monitor and/or extra
keyboard/mouse pair sitting on my desk. The box is plenty fast enough
for a firewall and it sits there running quitely month after month, quite
happy. It is on a UPS:-)
Ahh, sanity! Bravo! The idea that "every computer must have a
bitmapped display, a keyboard, and a mouse" that the PeeCee world has
infected us with is utterly ridiculous.
