Dag nab it. :) wolf359: NICE and NICE!!! ;) IronBear: Hmmmm, trying to drag me away from my recently purchased P5 are ya?

Might as well gather those of interest and waste time (hehe). Thanks all for your invaluable input here. The juicy bits make the choice all the more difficult. I'll let you know on which I decide.
