i'm in the process of bringing a new networker server on-line. (sun
5240, replacing a sun 490). based on much of the grumbling here i had
been planning on continuing on with 7.2.2. davina's message was a
pleasant surprise this morning. is it the general consensus that 7.4.2
is ready for prime time? 

(i will confess that the comments about the new gui don't leave me with
warm fuzzies, but what's one more sucky java interface?)
