It's worth repeating this number is based on rumor, speculation _and_ 
hearsay.  Still, I could live with $40/U/mo if it included some 
reasonable amount of transfer.  Maybe Bill Stearns' traffic will bump 
us into the next bulk category and the rest of our transfer will get 
lost in the noise.

We'd probably want to fund a terminal server/remote power unit to share 
for decent non-driving management.  I have a Zyplex with lots of serial 
ports but it only speaks telnet, so there would be need for a pokey ssh 
box in front of it, which might not be worth another U.

Would we need a switch?  That's a U.  I think KVM is probably overkill.
