Hi Vince,

hehe.. I let BBBS decide who gets the crash traffic "first"
generally.. It seems to work well so far.  Sometimes if I see the system
really bogged down, I'll pause one of two Crash nodes' traffic until the
major plug passes . I don't have to do that very often really
though.  I think this will work fine.

Understand that one.

That will be really nice for you, I'm sure :)

I know what you mean there :) Still sounds like a good system.

This is an HP 5 core... does the job, and I grabbed it in a pinch when my
last system died.. we don't usually buy prebuilt systems but this one was
there, and I was in a hurry... Works for me :)

Take care,
Janis
