			:::The problem is that this is not the wikipedia (or wikimedia). And the resulting policy of much community debate there does not automaticly apply here. Things are not either hardware or a phone or an orbitter, they can be all three at once. Hence they should appear in all these relevant categories. Likewise a NAS should go under storage and networking as well as hardware. I think this makes them much easier to find and I really don't see how it could hinder maintenance --[[User:Zaerc\|Zaerc]] 05:34, 7 October 2007 (MST)
