Get printer (Myriad) working.
Consolodate backups to get a drive for gourd
Label hard disks
Repair local network connection on Gourd.
Repair LDAP on Gourd (probably caused by net connection).
Replace failed drive in Gourd - 250gb sata
Communications to/from 202. Look into phone line, or maybe some IM-based solution?
Documentation for networking - we have no idea which config files are actually doing anything.
Take a look at spamassassin - Improve Performance of this if possible.
Test unknown equipment:

    - Power supplies
    - UPS
    - Power Strips
    - Fans
    - Network cables

Look into upgrades/patches for all our systems.
Look into monitorring that is already installed: RAIDs etc.
Look into Red Hat Enterprise Level 5, the latest version. Update Tomato to RHEL5 and check all services einstein currently provides. Then switch einstein <-> tomato, and then upgrade what was originally einstein. Look into making an einstein, tomato failsafe setup.

Get ahold of a multimeter so we can test supplies and cables. Got a tiny portable one.
Order new power supply for Taro Ordered from Newegg 5/24/2007
Weed out unneccesary cables, we don't need a full box of ata33 and another of ata66. Consolodated to one box
