    Yeah, you're right, Kevin. I should'a'node. 🙂 The "symptoms" told me I should ask anyway. Didn't know the "problem" would be such an incredible machine. Thanks for the feedback. See you at SQLSaturday in Detroit, right?

    Well, I only upgrade my laptop every 4 years, and when I do I get something just below top-of-the-line (to avoid that extra 2X cost for another 20% or so perf). I find great long-term value with this method. This laptop was so much faster (esp with the SSDs) that I can actually run my P2V'd old laptop in VMWare and it is FASTER than the old hardware! :w00t:

    I will indeed see you in Detroit for the SQL Saturday there. My 51st event if my counting is correct. 😎
