What would be the advantage? I am the only 'real' user on the system and it's almost certainly going to stay that way for as long as I'm around (which won't be all that long as I'm approaching 80 years old). The system doesn't have much else to do, it's dedicated to the above tasks plus automatically sending some data back home. -- Chris Green ยท
