That would afford you two the opportunity to discuss the tweaking and both machines could be optimized. Don't make me come down there and knock both your heads together... I know you both, and you both know I'll do it. :) Seriously though, a good solid test of both would be nice to see -- with both of you guys in agreement of the results and testing procedures... -elc.
