Ohh.. yeah, I kinda meant that I could have had the luxury of spending the
whole day writing and testing, and of course goofing on a bit...
Even If I wanted to have every machine compile and install their own kernels/
modules.... report status/failure/success, reboot, report kernel versions...
it would have been feasible to do that in one day, and have many days of
uptime before needing to run the script again!
