Good to know. I neglected to specify our standard is similar to OP, with Hyper-V, but I can justify older stuff for the few XE's for now. Fortunately, I'm special with Itanium hp-ux Oracle for the ERP. Unfortunately, Oracle corp. has decided that would make me the bastard red-headed stepchild, (with apologies to bastard red-headed stepchildren). I'm grateful to have a boring job in interesting times. (Sleepy after the Fun With Power last night, as some idiot brings down a big chunk of the western power grid while installing electrical grid monitoring. So much for negative instrumentation cost.)
