PC Magazine: An Upgradable Appliance

PC Magazine reviews the Linux-based NIC from New Internet
Computer Company and likes it:

“We tested the NIC with an LCD through a network connection to
AT&T’s Excite@home cable service. It powered on in 1 minute 28
seconds and handled downloaded PDF, video, and audio files easily
(though it can’t play audio CDs; the drive is busy running

fusionOne.”

“Although a bit slow because of the OS/application load time,
the NIC is a foolproof alternative for extending Internet access in
diverse settings.”
