Hi Jason,

    Occasionally I come across a customer that uses Apple's
version of a router (from hell) called an Airport Extreme.
Now this little abomination won't let you administer it
with a web browser like every other router in this universe.
You have to use Apple's "Airport" utility.  And, the
little stinker won't work over a bridge.  I hate the things.

And, of course, there is no Airport utility for Linux.
One for Windows.  Says it runs XP, until you run it and
it tells you you need Vista or above.  AHHHHHHH!

Had a customer last week that had one and had a bridge
to his office.  I had to take a hike to his home and
use his Mac Book, which is on the Airport side of
his bridge.

And, I really chafe under computer's with one button
mice.  I do support Windows, Mac, and Linux, but I really
don't care for Mac.  Way to locked down and too artsy-fartsy.
Not to mention they try to hide the command line from you
(it is in utilities).
