Does it matter if the only thing your using it for is hosting a VPN?

that sounds pretty cool but why wouldn't they have a gigabit lan port. they try to sell you a gigabit switch, but the port on the router is only 100mbit. that's fine for most people but 100mbit+ internet exists now, and wireless n is 150 in ideal conditions. and what's with the usb -> serial cable? is the serial port on the router or do they expect you to have one. the router specs say it has a usb port.

How does Power9 compare to x86-64 based CPUs? I could see myself running a system like this if they actual perform decently.

Given the price, it should probably do at least as well as Broadwell or Ryzen. Though I wouldn't really buy a $5000 workstation for normal computer usage. If actual work is on par on both architectures, then I'd say go for it.

I think your protection also depends on what you are doing. I'd imagine you want to hide terrorism plans differently than cheese pizza, or torrented movies

Check the hardware too.

it's IBM processor so it should be comparable to a business(c) workstation although there's already power10 but only few mega companies can afford them like google

Do you need libreboot for pre-me/pre-psp, pre-uefi hardware?
What's the point of that?
What are they?
