I'm just not sure about the processor power angle. The VBA has the Atom D510 processor which, by most accounts, is way more than enough to handle SBS. And I don't have the VBA doing anything else but running SBS. I can't make sense of it, either. We'll see if, when I go to wired next week, that makes any difference. From what you've said, I suspect it won't. If you've got a Bugzilla account vote for bug #16750. -- rgro Rick System information ------------------------ Touch w/Hardware V.5. Touch: FW 7.5.1 r9218.
