Thanks Matt for your input.

It all going in guess.
Why the manufacturer of soekris is not taking enough effort to prove
that their device also works with the posibilities?  I guess asterisk
is not used by few people, I can in millions. Are the soekris guys
want the customers to use them for testing their hardware products at
the cost of customers?

If we buy soekris products and if we don't want it saying unfit (after
testing with our desired hardwares), how much the we will loose?
