Funny thing. A net scan of my network, shows an Asustek machine. I don’t have an Asustek machine. Turns out it’s the HP desktop.

Could it be an OEM? Or just the network adapter? Asus does make a lot of components, I believe that’s how they started. Then they started making those cheap netbooks, then small cheap Atom-based desktops, and now they’ve moved up to more expensive boxes with presumably better margins.
