The lp1000r is a decent machine, and we could use it to replace Asgard,
or maybe we can use and upgraded Asgard to screen incoming email and
possibly as a backup machine. 
In the longer term, we would like to get a more recent multi-cpu system
with virtualization. Neither Asgard nor Olduvai really have enough in
the tank to do a good job at virtualization.
