Hi Everyone,
Those of you who were at the last meeting at Southampton Uni will have seen my
GuruPlug server[1], the Debian-based successor to the SheevaPlug, which
spectacularly failed to connect to the network properly. Of course, when I
got it home where no-one could see it, it started working perfectly again, and
continues to do so.
For those who are interested, I've set it up to run as a NAS, a web server,
wireless access point and bit torrent client, and am considering some other
uses for it. If you're looking for a low-powered server for ~£100 (and aren't
scared of a bit of hacking), they'd certainly have my recommendation. I've put
more details and pictures on my blog[2][3][4].

Cheers
Mark
