Hi Tom et al., We're just about ready to finish some system builds/rebuilds that will bring us up to speed. I think we'll be getting a tune up from either Steve or another friendly angel from the group when we give the go. We just got 5 new (to us, used to others) Dell systems that we're going to use for various components of our infrastructure. I have a few questions coming and some I know I don't know yet. (-: More from me soon. Best to all, Chris H.
