The bullding have a mult-imode fiber backbone and right now the LTSP
installations are on separate vlans. If I get this really working well
I may make a new "ltsp vlan" and dedicate a strand to it.

Currently I do, but in the next round, with a larger, more expensive
server, I probably won't. I would probably just replace the Mobo as
fast as I could get a new one. Possibly a bad idea, let me think about
that....

Do you think I can get away with something like a pcix based raid
controller like this?
