True. I plan to emphasize that running single user here is better,
but since I do a lot of work remotely, I tend to focus on a strategy that
works remotely. This is a really good caveat however, and I'll add it to
my notes. I'm hoping to finish up my updated "make upgrade" page tonight,
assuming that someone comes by with the keys later on tonight and uncuffs
me from my desk at work.....
