I say go ahead and do it, I will have to check with the RedLine about
you guys doing it there, but there concern is only in bringing in a
few more customers during the slow hours. It sounded like you wouldn't
really need the whole sound system, just a good set of desktop
speakers.

Let me know, and I will let them know to expect you.

Mike
