Fine by me, but whether or not I get it working, it's better that it sit 
unused at Peer1 than sit unused at Xiolink, because in the second case 
we are paying monthly for the privilege and ultimately we will want to 
get it online at Peer1 so we'd have a head start.  But I think it should 
be easy to get Abu back online once I have physical access.

I was thinking about ordering a replacement disks in advance but I guess 
I should take a look at abu first to ensure that the disk is actually 
failed.  Anyway I say go ahead and tell xiolink to ship the machine out.
