Hi Paul,

re:

So far, so good :-)

The weather has been absolutely incredible!  I just hope it keeps up, but
snows hard in the mountains (I'm a skiier!).

OK.  I'm doing a bunch of McIDAS installations lately, so one or two more 
wouldn't
be a problem.

Will the machine with the current McIDAS installation be available during/just
after the transition?  This would be useful as a reference for how you want/need
McIDAS setup after the build and installation.

Also, in preparation for a build, you should make sure that you have a full 
development
environment installed on the machine(s).

Cheers,

Tom
