Basically, you lose NOTHING when you change a BB server to a Hobbit
server.    At first, it'll look very similar.    Life will be good.
The BB clients can run untouched.   

However- once you start setting up a few *Hobbit* clients, you'll
quickly see what Hobbit DOES-- and what a typical BB client does NOT do.

That's the moment when you'll race to wipe BB completely.  Took me about
a week. :-)

Cool. I guess I'll add a second display to bb-hosts and give hobbit a
run. I'll just use Shmux to deploy bb-hosts to all the clients (figured
I'd mention that great application while I'm at it :-)

Once again, thanks for all the help everyone, hopefully my next message
here will be as a convert.
