You are turning this matter into a way that serves you best without really reading my previous reply.

YES, there is such market for appliances (even if Internet Appliances have failed miserably to penetrate the market 3 years ago), but this is not what we are testing here. Such Appliances can be created with either Windows CE or Linux or whatever else.

**What we really test here is the average successful default Linux distro (e.g. Red Hat or SuSE or Lycoris).** THIS is where your focus should be when replying here! What we test here is granny downloading or buying a stock product off the shelf and use it. And Appliances is completely off topic and irrelevant in the topic here! This is what I tried to explain to the first poster!
