I don't think Matthew wath thinking about that. This HW list gives just 
an indication if this is working or not.
What I understand here is a list of something like:
I currently use a B132 in production environment since November, 2001. 
It provides a CVS server, apache with PHP and  a postgresql database. 
The kernel is pretty old (2.4.14-32), but the only shutdown (and end of 
services) I had to notice where caused by powerfailure.
Use of Php is quite recent.
Matthew, does these (real) example correspond to your suggestion?
