Rick Glazier asks:
I REALLY should have done this a long time ago.
Other than being "in the dark" then, I have only
one important question. Is it just as safe, with no
hidden draw backs or pitfalls waiting to "get" me?

this type of configuration the same at all times?
Part two is a "go try it" question, sorry... ;-))) Rick
