| Yoggie Security Systems has squeezed a complete hardware firewall
| for Windows systems into a USB key sized form-factor. The "Yoggie
| Pico" runs Linux 2.6 along with 13 security applications on a
| 520MHz PXA270, a powerful Intel processor popular in smartphones
| and other high-end consumer devices.
