I think that's hopelessly naive - If you think they will have the same ram on the shelf a year from now that shipped with the system, I've got a bridge for you. They can and will blame it on software, firmware, power glitches, the admin, the economy or just shrug their shoulders and offer to sell you a new system when things occur they don't expect. _______________________________________________ Tech mailing list [email protected] http://lopsa.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tech This list provided by the League of Professional System Administrators http://lopsa.org/
