Cleeds, I knew what you meant. Your post was very clear. Another thing to consider too, try and take a server to a friend's house to watch a movie or listen to music.

I do appreciate the constructive and civil posts from both of you. Maybe after retirement I too will have my own servers and such. Right now though I will continue to work almost 60 hours a week so that I  will have a nice retirement.  It doesn't...
