I've seen instances like that as well -- but it required a certain OS on a 
certain platform with specific hardware running a specific function in a 
specfic app -- and none of them apply to where I am now.  :-/
I sent one server to 100% utilization yesterday with an internally-developed 
app, and they were pissed... :-)
