The APU has 3 - 1 gig Ethernet ports and works great as a firewall.

Thanks Stan,
What's the device's exact name, and where do I get one?

Hi,
PC Engines documentation for the APU is not explicit whether the RAM is
ECC or not. Researching the AMD G CPU it appears that it is only
compatible with non-ECC memory. Can you confirm that from your unit?
Also, is there consensus among developers to what extent having ECC RAM
is crucial for production servers and appliances? To put it another way
-- PC Engines do claim that their products are "industrial grade", so
would you trust the APU as a key component of your infrastructure if it
does not have ECC RAM?
Thanks in advance,
-Jacob.
It doesn't have ECC memory. Below is the dmesg from one of the APU's I
have. They aren't used in a production environment, so I can't comment
on their reliability.
