I know you guys are overly prejudiced against systems@, but why not run it on our own systems??
Our experience was that the guys at systems are already overloaded with work, and it would probably not be a good idea to put more load on them. There are some long awaiting stuff, which would need that new machine. The PDFs are not built for a long time now, and the so called 'new machine' - which is probably building the HTML versions right now - was said to have enough resources to build the PDFs. There is a good amount of demand for them, and we need a strong machine to build them.
