That's why i'd prefer something running netBSD, i don't trust those
little $100 things farther than i can spit 'em.  (after all, i could
throw one an awful long way, they don't weigh very much.)  Once again,
just my opinion, it's not like i've dealt with those things very much,
but i do know of people who have told me they need to power cycle them
from time to time.
