I just gotta throw this question out, just for kicks and giggles... but I
haven't been watching this list for awhile now. I left Sega last April and
returned last August, and only for a month now did my email get restored.
But my question is this:

What is the ultimate purpose for the Dreamcast NetBSD project? Is there an
actual functional purpose to it, or is this just a hobby?

Don't get me wrong, I enjoy reading this, and would eventually like to see
it in action. But is there really any purpose to it? I'm sure it won't
really replace my BSD box at home :)
