[AccessD] Network booting Windows XP

ROTFL.  In fact that is EXACTLY what I want to do.  I fold for the MSI Red
Rocket team and there is a user there just barely inching me out.  I am
currently number one on the team but this other user will be overtaking me
in a few months.  If I could throw a very cheap machine at it I could hold
him off (or even gain perhaps).
