Stop. Now. It serves no possible useful purpose. If you want to discuss why this was chosen or suggest alternatives, feel free to write me *off-list*. I would be more than happy to answer any questions about the technical aspects of various choices. The decision is made, now I suggest everyone get busy actually trying it out. You will very quickly understand why it is a very viable choice. Thanks, Greg
