Indeed physical RAM is somewhat limited compared to the desktop and server
markets with only 32MB (we are building future 7250's with 64MB and
128MB).  However, we've found most people wanting to use NetBSD on this
platform aren't going to want to run a high load SQL server or try to use
it with video as a productive workstation.  Our website at
http://www.embeddedARM.com is run by a single lower horsepower SBC and
handles over 400k hits a month.  There is even some (though not a lot) of
PHP dynamically generated HTML in there.

I do like this idea too.  Hopefully we can come to a consensus soon, as
I'd like to get something committed soon for some others that have
expressed interest.  Should I go forward with renaming to "sbcarm" and
adopt an organization similar to the evbarm port?
