Ric:  Good pointer.  It definitely would be an excellent use of a 
community wireless network (intranet).  Might be even a critical one for 
introducing our local teachers to computers and how they can be used in 
the classroom for collaborative educational projects.

I saw Firefox boosting notes that called for disabling inet6 as one step 
to speed up browsing.  I wonder if you have to do something similar with 
your system whenever you move to Wonderland.
