I disagree I DID NOT INVENT nor did I REINVENT the WHATCHAMACALLIT .. I ASKED A QUESTION .. It was as straightforward as I could ask that question ? If some one did it and sold some, I might buy one. Did you invent, sell or buy one ? Did / does it work ? Who would I want to contact, email, telephone, cell block, etc ? if one exists ? OTHERWISE, Still standing is the question what do those of you who are around here a long time view of the feasibility and cost to bring that Whatchamacallit to market today ??? Oh, InterJet, hell I cant even fly (-: :-) /Ev/ On Thu, Apr 19, 2001 at 07:01:44PM +0200, Andrzej Bialecki wrote: > > For me, better question yet: What would it cost to combine enough > > disk, user account builder, webserver, DNS, proxyserver, add FreeBSD, > > OpenBSD or Linux to a footprint like a small Cisco 1600 or slightly > > racksize larger Cisco 2500/2600 with ipfilter, ipNAT, VPN and bring > > it to market for ALL the DSL and CABLE and Wireless users.
