Just finished a ~20 dB gain modified satelite dish antenna w/
integrated wireless router / mesh node / general purpose computer
based on a Netgear WGT634U, a 1Gb USB flash stick, a 4 port USB hub, a
USB entension cable, and a Zydas ZD1211 wireless nic.

The final configuration nets a 200Mhz cpu, 32Mb ram, two 10/100 NICs
(one conviently connected to a built-in 4 port switch), 2 unused USB2
ports, an unused serial port, 1Gb of flash, dual 802.11G NICs, and no
fans or other moving parts.  All for less than $85.

It takes a bit of elbow grease to get up and running, but I can point
anyone to the relevant websites if interested...
