I have no idea how you can come to the conclusion that suggesting one research an area before making alterations is in any way to "assume and pontificate". If anything, that would fit your perspective in this discussion, since you are assuming I am leaving my server unprotected. I have found many posts on this list helpful, but take offense to being attacked for merely stating fact.

Ah, it's a fairly polite way of saying that making the dubious Cobalt
warranty more important than installing something to protect your >system is bass-ackwards and could result in unpredicatable results.

Again, I believe that would better describe taking the advice of someone I don't know and assume they didn't forget something important or that they even have a clue about what they are talking about. To run a business in such a way will have very predictable results. It will fail.
