"Tell the directors to stop playing IT. If they don't understand how dangerous and poorly designed this will be they should have no say.
They are literally putting the business at risk of literally loosing it all. A scheduled downtime is better than an unplanned one when this current plan blows up. "
Isn't that a @scottalanmiller quote?

Heading to Cleveland to meet with a client, and then on to crash at @Minion-Queen's house this evening.
Must remember to buy some Hershey's Chocolate for @aboyd before Friday afternoon.
We can easily get some on the way there

Wound up with new office machines in the Sysadmin group here... Win 10, 16GB Ram, 256GB NVMe drive, and 34 inch curved screens. These are some beefy workstations -- Dell Precision T (Tower?) 3620.

Nice - I added two 23" displays to the desktop - though right now only one is in use.... that (will) gives me four..
