      No, it's about mixing workloads. There is a lot of value to "do one thing, do it well." UTMs don't do this. Everything is mashed onto one box. Rather like people throwing every little workload onto a NAS. It isn't designed for that.

      Oh OK. Makes sense. Sorry @JaredBusch I wasn't trying to be a jerk, I promise.

        Ha like Synology putting web servers and DNS servers on their NAS units?

            Yeah, but all of them in that general category do it too. None of them advise it, all of them allow it.

              Not a single one I have seen takes it as far as Synology though.

                They do get pretty extreme with it.

                        hahaha. I can't believe someone would use that for a directory server or mail server. I kind of want to see what would happen if you turn everything on.

                            @MattSpeller I just told my wife this last night. It's funny how avatars change perception of things. Every post I read of yours comes out in a Ron Swanson voice in my head. I love it.

                              @johnhooks By using his pic for my avatar I hope to one day gain some of the powers he keeps in his moustache.
