I am using it and it ROCKS!!!!!
Me too, so that's 2 rocks. Well, 1 and 1/2 since you top-posted. :-( Runs fine on very old minimal eqpt. I have it on an AMD 5x86 (486 in a 386 socket) 100MHz, 3 3Com 3C509 (half duplex unfortunately) 32MB DRAM (remember what that is?) and junk Champ 1GB old slow drives.
Motorola WR850g + OpenWRT here :) Nice, silent, low energy requirements (11W PSU), small, and has WiFi.
And if you want to create DMZs with it, you can configure each of the 4 LAN Ethernet ports on a different VLAN.
I'm getting some Linksys WRT54GL tomorrow too.
My WR850g went in to replace my CentOS based firewall box (based on K6, 128M RAM).
