Linux

All the more reason to use a Linux system as your home router.

well if you ignore power, money, and time, then sure.

You will have to translate that for me. Most of the linksys routers can/do run linux so I do not see power or money being an issue. As far as time goes I do the same things as I did running XP but have none of the headaches. Not one virus since switching. I only have to reboot when I change kernels ( used to be twice a day on XP). I have not had to reinstall once due to OS flaking out (averaged once every three months with XP). All on the same hardware. Linux has saved me weeks of time per year.

Agreed. Nothing like a good ole' Openwrt install.
