My shop must have been the first.  My SE and I were in the
WSC after midnight using blocktime to preconfigure VM with
BSEPP for our 4341 still a month out or so.  Only the media
wouldn't load.  The SE got on the phone--I never got to say
a word.  It turned out B&I was never able to test the FBA
media because they didn't have any FBAs yet--my SE and I
were the first to try it.  He was orders of magnitude more
upset than I was.
