Just Right

Pros: Compact, Quiet, Cost, Usability

Cons: No Vesa mount included. (Had to purchase separately.) Bloatware.

Overall Review: Got 3 of these to function as network stations in a medical practice to access an electronic medical records system. Mounted to monitor but had to purchase mounts separately from another retailer (about $18 each). Wouldn't want to edit graphics on these things, but for single purpose workstations, they're perfect.

Security Vulnerability

Cisco Small Business RVL200 VPN Router 1 x 10/100Mbps WAN Ports 4 x 10/100Mbps LAN Ports

Pros: Great SSL VPN router (if you could use it). Set up easy, works great.

Cons: Can't use. Has a cross-site scripting error in the firmware, that creates a security vulnerability. My PCI-DSS (credit card security) monitoring company found the hole. I had to remove the router to pass testing and avoid fines from the credit card companies. Cisco provided a beta firmware that did nothing to fix the problem.

Overall Review: Don't buy it if you process credit cards or worry about security.
