More hackable hardware: Installing OpenWrt on Seagate DockStar HOWTO
I have a suprising fascination with devices that can be reflashed with custom firmware. I have an old NSLU2 from Linksys. I have more than a couple WRT54Gish routers that run DD-WRT and Tomato.

Brainwagons back! I can't help you with a job, not least because I'm on the other side of our little…
