It's not clear if they are saying the workstations are booting from this
Ututo CD or if it's just a router. If it's just a router machine, what's
the big deal? I'd be more impressed if it were booting from a write
protected memory stick.

If it's all the desktop machines then cool! That eliminates a lot of
problems with the kids changing stuff.
