A article on that in the NYTimes cercuts 2 weeks ago. I opener ran a special
on the price on it. It was bought up by hackers. One made up a kit. He had a site I
looked it up. You would have to be a hacked to do it. He stated he would not be
respirable if you fry your iopener.

Yep, it is a dedicated Linux box.
 
You know the iopener actually has an IDE port built-in. I've recently
heard of several people hacking into the system and adding hard drives.
The result is a fairly decent pentium class machine for the $99 price of
the iopener plus a hard drive and some time modifying the box.
