I disagree 1000%.  When you boot an AP-1200, apply layer up layer of
VLANs, RADIUS auth, as well as a 1000+ line tftp booted text config
(though it can all (or most) be done via the web config) plus TACACS
and every other protocol found in a true enterprise network you will
know that a WRT54G running OpenWRT would NEVER be able to handle the
load nor should it have ever been asked to do so.

Linksys = home or SMB (look at Cisco's link roadmap and VoIP products
announced recently)
Cicso= Enterprise (or anywhere untested, unproven code should be deployed).
