>From my understanding, the only reason you can hold that opinion so hard
is because you refuse to acknowledge that the new machines labels auspex
are really auspexs.  From what I've heard, newer Auspexs (like when they
went to NT instead of the custom sparc stuff) aren't as nice as NetApps.

But, I could be wrong.  Except I think I heard that from you.  I never
have such nice toys around to play with/use/lay eyes upon.
