mattep, I have to agree with Diam0nd. This is the place where something like this should be!
Anyhow, I have been using DD-WRT since back in the 1.x days and love it. The amount of features that you can wrangle out of some old Linksys wireless and wired routers. I currently run this beta on 2 WRT54GL routers and have had nothing but ease of use with both builds.
The only knock I have against DD-WRT is the IPV6 implementation. It was a nightmare to setup and still continues to be that way. Aside from that, 5 stars!

The program execution is fine... I had no problems running it or using it. Which is why I gave it a 4.
My concern lies in the fact that it can mangle outgoing headers. In today's soceity, anything that we can do to help spammers do their craft really needs to be limited or stopped altogether. This tool allows almost anyone to become a spammer with little more than a legitimate mail client and a little bit of imagination.
Outbound email headers should , IMHO, be read-only for this very reason. Not that someone wouldn't find a way around it, obviously, but at least it's a little bit of deterent for the less experienced, would-be spammers out there.

Actually, while the platform is dying (I won't debate that as I don't know anyone that runs Opera on their desktop), the embedded platform is gaining ground. With the Wii and other embedded devices, Opera is usually the standard.

Writing virusii has nothing to do with an open ecosystem. You can have a totally secure operating system and still allow for it to run on a multitude of hardware configurations (think Linux).
Secondly, "Over 230,000 for Windows and Zero for Mac OS X"... Um, no.
"6.10.2009 News
Apple has finally acknowledged that spyware and viruses are a threat for Mac OS X, as well as the latest operating system in the works, Snow Leopard. Snow Leopard will be adding new technology to help prevent against attacks such as sandboxing and anti-phishing features in Safari. This, however, is not a 100% solution to protect against malware." --> http://www.securemac.com/

Seriously, when are people running Macs going to realise that even they are susceptible to viruses and hacks as much as any other computer user?

Supposedly, the specs on the netbook are high enough to warrent the $599 unsubsidized price tag. *shrug*
I wouldn't pay that much (nor would I ever get ANYTHING tied to AT&T), but supposedly it's worth it...

Have you looked at Maemo? Built on a true linux distro, it's light years ahead of anything that Symbian ever had or has to offer. Throw in that it's open source and you have the makings for an OS, dare I say, even better than Android can, should, and probably will be...
