	Well, it looks like this one is it; it has the enclosure and so
	on with take more assembly that I myself can do, but not a
	fellow computer geek.  Since I'm doing this as-if from scratch,
	what's the best way of getting pfSense installed?  Can I do it
	somehow over the wire or use a thumb drive?  

	What I understand is that the board won't be in stock until Dec
	20th and I need it by the 15th, so  should I just google around?
	(I'm imagine all the tens of millions of peiople who are
	shopping for a board that runs a firewall integrated with 
	FrreeBSD:-)

	Anybody?
