    What’s this Minux you keep talking about?

    I think you overestimate the money companies are willing to spend on memory and CPU for white line appliances. I actually have friends who have worked in R&D in the industry, cheap bastards wouldn’t splurge for an AmpOp if a BJT could do the job. If something required brains, a cheap small SoC was the way to go, with all its 64-256KB of memory.
