i love netbsd:) It can run on anything, as this demonstrates!

Umm... maybe NetBSD should add a link for the Toaster port. :) They have a version for everything else.

Hi I just randomly found your lj and thought "Hey, lives int he area, should say hi." So hi. yeah and that link....why is that necessary?

Hi. I don't think a computer in a toaster is necessary, but it does demonstrate the portability of netbsd to embedded devices. NetBSD can run on a large number of different computer architectures and devices like dreamcast and playstation2. So the joke got started that it could even run on your toaster. Finally some one actually ported NetBSD to a toaster.
