Fwd: Spam Cube in the NYT

["Dude VanWinkle" <dudevanwinkle () gmail com>]

Hey guys, this article below gives me an idea for a start-up...

... A small proxy server kinda like the spam cube. It could be
marketed to parents who want to control the browsing habits of their
technologically superior kids. If a parent installs software on their
kids box, then they can uninstall it, not with the homeproxy, which
could also block viri and detect CSS and phishing sites.

What do you guys think? Even if someone else beats us to the punch
with a proxy, we could always beat em with quality. Stuff a 64bit AMD
dual core in a box and you would be gauranteed to beat out the
compitetion (who would probably go for lower production cost)

Shoot we could even have a smaller-cheaper model for the budget concious.

That, accompanied with a donation of a percentage of the profits to
the open source apps/os's we run would ensure we had a good line of
support.

What do you guys think?
