Badges and Bridges Blather

Wouldn't it be nice if Sun sold, or gave away with every x86
media kit, a nice Solaris badge to stick on your PC. I managed
to find a supplier of such PC case badges and now my two (one
at home, one at work) Solaris PCs look much nicer. I've stuck the
badge next to the Intel Inside badge on the work PC and naturally
removed the Windoze badge.

I've recently noticed that Linksys are selling a (still a bit expensive)
Ethernet to Wireless bridge, ostensibly for gamers but I believe it
would work fine for PC (and SPARC) Unix machines that want to go
WiFi but don't have the necessary WiFi NIC drivers. WGA54G
