Well that settles that.  I ran all day yesterday with no problems... 
The memtest ran from 9pm - 1pm with no errors, but at about 7:30pm
last night when the washer and dryer were going that it started up
again.  Also there is a garage band that plays now and again, and I am
located (I believe) on the same grid as a football stadium.

Now the real trick, which one do I get.
