Quite. Heck, there are probably quite a lot of customers of the late lamented Soekris machines (which used Geodes and then Atoms) that are still using them, 32-bit or no, because they sit in a corner (or nailed to a wall) and *just work*, and because it's hard to find anything which is a small form-factor general-purpose computer (as opposed to a router) for less than insane money with that many NICs. I still see lots of alleged embedded firewall boxes with two or three NICs. No thank you, four expandable to eight is my minimum :)
