The tagline since the mid/late 90s for NetBSD has been "it runs on everything, even a toaster", it used to be "it'll run on almost everything, except a toaster" and then someone showed up at a BSD con with a toaster casemod to run NetBSD.

*I was wrong, it's since the mid 2005. Here's said toaster: https://laughingsquid.com/netbsd-toaster/

I remember when it happened (I feel old suddenly). My favorite thing was that you can adjust the toast settings from the terminal.

NetBSD will run on a toaster, tux is shocked at the outcome.

But was the toaster a Sunbeam?
