Yes, I've put it on the agenda for tonight again. We want to
fix them, not buy new ones, which was your point. (if the fixing

No rush - we don't need it yet. We can wait to see if we really
need it, and see if something good becomes available. It'd need
fast ethernet, good disks and only moderate RAM and CPU.
