I agree, I have a freind who was considering purchasing a couple of servers 
with win2000 server on them thay had the 915 MB's in them. I think they were 
built by some kid, anyway yhey were really selling hime on teh encryption 
till I asked him exactly that... How many times have you replaced the MB in 
one of your old servers? (he said 2 that he can remember) ...
