Yah, goes pretty painlessly if done in order. You know whats teh boot loaders limit on os's?

Wondering if it'd take some server2008 action as well.

Hey Dinos

The only problem that I can see with many OS's on a benching drive is they all to often get furballed and need to be reinstalled.

I just use a SSD and reinstalls go pretty fast, I guess, I still hate having to do it tho.

Yup thats something I have to get around to learning all the ins and outs of that. I gave it my best shot at GOOC in LA at #4 but you are one of the masters at it cool2

So much to do in my little shop these days ...
