We typically try our best to support anything that anyone wants to use to 
connect to us.

We've had customers with Nokia 9000 phones, eBooks, palm pilots, game
consoles, god knows how many flavours of UNIX, etc.

To give you some idea of what kind of wierd shit people try to connect
to networks, we've even had some customers who have tried to get Windows
NT systems Internet connected.  Can you believe it? :-)

If it's strange enough there are, of course, no guarantees that we'll
get it to work.  But our help desk tries their best.
