	Yup, lots of writes unfortunately.

	A Ramdisk is a potential option, something to think about.

	As for larger CF's, I am... I've got the Extreme 8G in there now.

	A non-tech was at the site today and happened to call me to
check on things. I had them do a power cycle, but the machine didn't
seem to come up. :-/ 

	I'm also now looking to put Cisco gear there so I can have
a remote serial connection in too.

			Thanks, Tuc
