Hey Guys,

Buy.com has pogoplugs on sale for $25 with free shipping.  Pogos can make very nice little Linux servers.  Jon did a talk on these a while ago at the OLUG meeting.  Also I think they are one of the reference platforms for the freedombox project.

Good news: it is the black ones instead of the pink ones.  Bad news it is USB 2.0 so it can be a bit slow.  Does do gig ethernet though :-)

One other thing if you get one of these from buy.com make sure to go into your cart and unselect the CA backup software they stick in there.  It is a free trial and then then slam for something like $50/year.

Regards,

Aaron
