Thanks guys for the replies! They are very much appreciated.
Night Watch - Yeah, that definitely puts a damper on that plan. Thanks for the basic, no fluff, answer.
SunNFun - Thanks for the suggestion! I will relay that info on to my dad.
If anyone else has any other suggestions, they would be most welcome.
Lastly, I have my own questions regarding CX, just to satisfy some curiosity. Specifically: How long are the upgrades, roughly? What is the competition like to get in as a DE FO?
