Hi Mike,

Ah Ha!  128 is much closer to 100, so that would account for that part
of the mystery.

Right.

re:

No, but the values will probably have to be maintained for those that
have archived case studies.

Again, be careful when comparing Level 2 TTU products with Level 3 Vlab
products.

re:

I'm off, and will not have access to our inquiry tracking system until I
get home some time after 7 pm MDT.

Cheers,
