The heat sensitive fans I am very interested in.  I have some quiet 
machines to build.

The network card is interested, but considering I can buy new ones for 
less than 15 pounds and don't want to ruin my uptime by changing it when 
it dies.

And if we are on about BSD, can somebody explain the point of the 
different flavours.  There is OpenBSD (which is I know is meant to be 
mentally secure.  But what about NetBSD and open BSD?

And why is Tux in a box with the BSD Daemon on the hudlug webpage?  You 
could get into trouble for that. :)

Tim
