Sigh.  The $@%^*^@*( battery is soldered in or something.  I do see that there
are a pair of simm sockets.  This is way cool.  I've never had a device that 
wasn't a stand alone computer that took memory upgrades before.  Sweet.

Now to scour the documentation for a different method of restoring to factory
defaults.

OK, here we go.  Trying "system nvData reset".  Hope it works.  Well, it
reset the passwords at at least.  Now to see if NFS still locks up.

Hmm.  I'm pushing it pretty hard (doing compiles on the NFS share, du -k on it,
copying large files back and forth, all of those at once, etc), and still no 
lock up.  Looks good.  I'm so happy.  Finally, a real, quality, piece of pro 
hardware working correctly.  Wheee. 

Sorry, owned it for quite some time now and am just ecstatic that after all 
these weeks it is finally working.

Now, back to that boot server.
