Here's an interesting one;

Somebody on one of the Public groups is making this claim:

Now, I posted my doubts, as I have both systems running, and in 
fact installed them in the order this guy did.  It doesn't work, 
nor would I expect it to.  He responds:

Any comments?  Anyone else get this result? Or is this guy 
sniffin' glue?
