Hi Bill!

Hey, if you've got a blank check and maybe starting from scratch,
here's a few tips to make sure everything goes smoothly!  Free advice
from expert consultant since 2003!

1) When you buy those Sun computers, make sure they all weigh the
same.  This is because you have to balance the load on them and it's
easier for the load balancer if they weigh the same.  If they do end
up different, maybe you can even out the load with some of those old
servers.

2) Make sure you buy the security option with the servers.  The XOR
isn't protected if you don't, and that's just basically bad.  Security
starts at the bottom.

3) Make sure those servers use 3-phase current, since data leakage can
happen with just 2-phase current.

Good luck!
