MAC IDs

• 00-0c-30-e3-15-bd: must be one of the Vonage boxes or a wireless hub (I wrote those down somewhere...)

Log

• 2009-02-03 Moved Vincent's HDs over to Gonzo II; video and most system drivers seem to work.
• 2009-01-19 Gonzo I got replaced by Gonzo II over the summer
• 2008-01-02 Vincent got fried by a dying power supply; it turns out Rizzo's only problem was an electrically-problematic HD, so old Rizzo is now taking Vincent's place. All it took was finding Win98 drivers for the video and onboard ethernet.
