The Network Computer Profile is the current standard to which all real
 Network Computers must comply. Maintained by the Open Group the profile
 outlines what minimum facilities a device must provide to be called
 a Network Computer, and what standards must be used to provide those
 facilities, eg SMTP for sending mail and HTTP for fetching web pages.
