			In addition, I can press a new 8x8 2k matrix switcher into operation. I will name it "Tyre". Tyre will need a port on Eden but in general will be a low-priority system as it can't be easily controlled remotely like the others.

	The cat5 KVM will be unaffected by the move. Beowulf is also fully capable of driving a signal directly. For interim capacity, I will run HDMI 6 directly into the monitor and use Beowulf with only 1 screen. Work Laptop will run into a second port for the time being using available capacity. This will allow me to work on the rest of the system without completely interrupting my abilities.		The cat5 KVM will be unaffected by the move.

			Step 1: clean up solarium.

			Step 2: tear down wire rack

			Step 3: reconfigure wire rack

			These steps can be done before interrupting system.

-*10 into 1
+So the latest idea is to move most of the switching equipment in to the other room be the computers. This is apparently the correct way to do this.
-Of the 8 ports, 5 are running 2k sources, AND there is no space for the pi to connect at 4k. This is a waste.
+However, for various reasons, I still need SOME switching capacity in the room with me.
-So, when we do the rebuild, everything 2k is getting moved over to Galilee with a possible exception of Todd, which does get some good use being convenient. If we move Blue, Hydra, and Retro, we'd have 3 extra 4k inputs. On the rare occasions I DO use those PCs, I can set them on Galilee and still be able to access fairly easily.
+Needed:
-Originally I had planned to have port1 on Galilee go to Nazareth, but am re-thinking that. Here's my first draft:
+The plan is to use Jerusalem, the 6x2 matrix to drive John and Thomas. Jerusalem will be linked to both Eden and Egypt(basically the reverse of the current config.

+The new configuration will involve relocating Beowulf to the wire rack. I kind of prefer this idea because its always bugged me that Beowulf isn't rack mounted. This will involve re-configuring the wire rack and a nearly complete and total re-cable.
-Since all of the 2k PCs being moved also go to Eden, i have the option to make port8 on Egypt be their screen. When I get the multi-viewer added to the mix that'll make life even easier.

 The challenge would then be controlling it, since it takes the same IR signals as Eden and Galilee.
