There's definitely places where this is useful, and there's time where it's useless... with their price point, however, I think they're just going to sink further in to the weeds.

It is not a new idea. Several companies are now doing this but, it has some challenges. Primarily the reconfig issues but these will get worked out once the mgmt consoles are a bit more improved. It is a stretch to assume that a large outfit would put one in each pc.

btw - KorpDeath, got sunscreenlite loaded and toying with it.

I got this form Slashdot but they just had a link to Znet so they don't get any credit.
I love www.slashdot.org helps feed my information addiction.
