Why the switch to Polipo from Privoxy? Is Privoxy officially

There are no tor/browser appliances for Ubuntu out yet, right?
I'm thinking about packaging Tor/Polipo into a VServer guest,
for extra control and security.

Anyone knows how badly Atom N270 virtualizes? I should probably
take that to a different list.

If I don't configure a relay, I will be low-traffic, correct?
