Catching up on some old email :^)  Wow, but January was a busy month  
for BayLISA!

I like that list, and I'd add Monitoring & Trending (Nagios, Cacti,  
Orca, to name a few), and perhaps Building Uniform Servers  
(JumpStart, KickStart, Ports, etc.) to that list.  My preferred order  
would be

Scripting
Virtualization
Monitoring
Storage (SAN/NAS)
Servers

(yeah--I need to work on my scripting :^D  ).
