Awesome, Its good to hear about the spread of Linux and Open Source Software.
I have been helping people setup Linux routers.
Been trying to get some people in EU that run Direct Connect Servers(Verlihub and Ynhub) to start using linux routers on their 100Mb connections.

If anyone needs help burning off ISos please let me know @ cbird at scola.org would just need a brand of CD recommendation and a name of Disto to burn. and then i can burn 20+ in no time.
