... And OpenWRT's small core and package based extension system make it
extremely flexible.

(I only recently bought a wireless router, a Linksys WRT54GL that
happened to be on sale at Fry's for $50, to compliment and connect my new
Acer Aspire One. Of course, being a strong FLOSS believer, it didn't
take me long to kill the shipped firmware in favor of a FLOSS
alternative, only long enough to do the research and find OpenWRT both
the most open and the most flexible. I'm now looking forward to the time
when a freedomware 2.6 kernel module can replace the no-freedomware 2.4
proprietary wireless module for full openness.)
