Make power supply mount for taro
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
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
Installed new power supply for Taro.
Get printer (Myriad) working.
Set up skype.
Fix sound on improv so we can use skype and music sound was set to alsa, setting to OSS fixed it. should have worked either way though.
