Yea, well. I had to name it something, and slow seemed appropriate,
given the kind of drives used in the RAID.  <g>

I read that document, and I'd just like to thank you for making me
feel stupid.  :D

Honestly, I didn't understand half of what that doc were saying, so I
don't feel comfortable trying my hand at this new syntax.

Most of my qemu-kvm "knowledge" have come from this page:
http://www.linux-kvm.org/page/HOWTO

How would my current -net setup translate into the new method?

Also I see in the doc mentioned, that this new -device method is also
available as a replacement for -soundhw and -vga. Those two I do think
I understand.  hehe
