Sure! I'd love to! :)
BTW, can I trade in my 400+ old PE2950 at the same time and get some kind of 
reward for messing with the &%#@&#%$ DRAC5, Altiris, DTK, ITA over the past 3 
years?! ;) It is/was driving me mad from time to time. 
I *love* the new UEFI Lifecycle option to update the servers. Better late then 
never, I guess.

Thanks,
Chris.
