I'm way behind.. just getting caught up on NANOG:
Circa 2000 I got stuck with one of the ImageStream DS3 systems,
tried to return it and get our money back and could not..
Our reason for return

once again - i claim no clue on how Imagestream work. but i am very
familiar with linux. and router/switch architecture.

be plenty fast with good code under the hood.
