I'm sorry, that was a thinko. It should've read "machine" or "system" or similar. And the conclusions apply even moreso to desktop boxes than to servers, because there tend to be so many more of them, and because most of the time, sysadmins are geared towards managing servers rather than desktops, making changes to the latter harder, and less smooth. YMMV on the details, of course, but there wasn't intended to be any differentiation between servers and desktops in my mail.
