Funnily enough, we just replaced a set of old Netgear NAS units with
newer Synology NAS units. One of these old Netgear NAS unit (ReadyNAS
Duo v1) has a bastardised SPARC v7 (with some v8 instructions, I
believe) processor embedded in it. I'm toying with the idea of
replacing the crappy Netgear firmware with something more modern.
