Yes it's an everyday challenge to run a "big board." And the challenge is highly underestimated (I know I underestimated it). You can no longer run on uncle Jim's extra server and have your friend from vborg install new hacks for you. You need a skilled team of experienced vb guys because one inefficiency in the code can setoff table lock. And your hardware will not be cheap nor will the technical support to keep it running. It's a rewarding experience to run a vb, but the challenge is not to be underestimated.
