Subject: Cisco serving apps using module running Cisco Hardened Linux...
This sounds interesting:
http:/www.internetnews.com/dev-news/article.php/3740106/Cisco+Turns+Routers+Into+Linux+Application+Servers.htm
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps9701/index.html

Cisco will be supporting apps on their Integrated Service Routers
(ISRs) and some other devices (WAAS) via modules running embedded
Linux (i.e., Cisco Hardened Linux). Developers will be able to use a
Cisco SDK for development of open/closed source apps. These apps will
have the opportunity to be "certified by Cisco."

I wonder if this is just a generalized version of their IDS router
module which also has a Linux core.

And for the /. crowd, ... "But will it run Quake?" :-P

ymmv,
