Hah! This forum is supposed to be for "finished" installations, but are they EVER finished?
Here's my install as it sits - it's up and running, but there are plenty of upgrades to perform before it's "finished."
Most of all, I have to thank those on the board who have helped make this happen! JCDillin, Frodo, Frigor, Rando, and Zorro - mad props to you!!! And thanks to everyone whose posts I learned VOLUMES from courtesy of the search tool.
