Oops ... what happened to 2005? Apparently, I shouldn't do calendar math so early in the morning. However, my point still stands. I've got 2 pieces of hardware still running 4.11, and both are scheduled for replacement before the end of this year. If anyone has a good reason for me to take the time to upgrade these before they're replaced, I'd enjoy being corrected, as my current plan is to simply replace them with 6.1 machines when the new hardware arrives. -- Bill Moran Collaborative Fusion Inc.
