those are the kind of specialty issues that we're
looking at in addition to payback is, if you don't
have the surge occurrence of these big machines with
all that other ancillary equipment, you don't have
to oversize your generators. So the payback is even
further. And it's really significant when you look
at some of these generators being double the size,
just in order to carry the surge occurrence on the
startup of our former very large equipment.
So a lot of that lends itself to
reevaluating the total picture, and thus far, we
seem to be finding that the monitor approach
conserves space as well. We're finding out that we
can pack an awful lot in a very small space, to the
