A few weeks ago, I had a look through ebuyer's catelogue, and I came 
across something truly marvelous.

It's called a Netgear ProSafe FVS114. It's a hardware firewall and VPN 
tunneling device. Exactly what I need for a project I'm looking at. And 



Anyway, I got hold of the user manual from Netgear's website and had a 
good read. It sounds like quite a flexible device. Perfect for what I 
want to do. Yay! (It's also a 4-port Ethernet switch - extra useful!)

So today I went back to ebuyer to buy one. Except... it's gone. 
Completely vanished. I can't find it anywhere. The closest thing I can 

the device I wanted has gone...

Damn. I think I just missed a seriously good deal. :-(

That's the spirit. First complain here and then ask Google.

Sounds like an cheap solution to blow holes in your firewall. Are you 
sure your company is not insecure enough by management design alone to 
also need to physically blow it? or is it for home use?

Interesting... I purchased it from Amazon, but it's actually some other

up OK! ;-)

Amazon does this sort of thing - their main products are books, music, 
and videos, but they've created a sort of "marketplace" where you can buy 
nearly anything you want...

I see... So if I buy a fridge from Amazon, I'm really buying it from 
some other random company. Amazon just runs the website and processes 
the payments? (And takes a slice of the money...)

I was wondering how a book store is suddenly able to sell cars and 
office desks...

Yep, exactly. :-)
