Once, Nortel Networks was a $100 billion telecommunications giant and could have bought Cisco for $20 billion. It was too late for Cisco when they realized they were awfully behind in IP networking race. So they bought Bay Networks for $4 billion.

I should try this. Actually I'm interesred in much tiny versions of this for ultra narrower domains, like ordering dialogs in a coffeshop, and off course, having it on a corresponding tiny HW. Is there any development to this direction?

Nice. Could you please add also the postal costs to the sort? My very first trial showed me a 38$ PC with 500$ postal cost. I'm located in Europe, but still ???
