 I used to work with an Ascend GRF (goes real fast) Router that was
nothing more than a hacked BSD os running on a hard drive at first then
they moved to a flash card that controlled some custom switching
hardware.

yes, we tried those in beta.  literally went up in flames, yes real
flames.  one of the more exciting routers made from washing machine
parts i have ever seen.
