PKA,
I didn't mean to sound unhelpful with my post. Just giving some honest feedback. I am always willing to help, and if you wish to email or PM me, I will help as much as I can. Email in profile.
To everyone:
One key point that sometimes gets lost in these discussions. While P2P and even using the PC with the database as a workstation may work well with Amazing Charts, we sometimes forget that many may be using their network/domain/server for other things besides AC. I, myself, run my billing software, AC, FAP and other mission critical applications and/or databases on the server. This can require a lot of RAM and a faster processor can't hurt.
While you can backup a workstation, it is safer and good to know that you are backing up a dedicated server (whether what I call a pseudo-server {dedicated workstation -- not in use} or a "real" server with a "real" server OS)
We as doctors, etc. are usually control freaks, and I think it is an accident waiting to happen if one of your staff who will not suffer much if all of your data is lost is the one changing tapes or backing up to hard drives. One key component to any good network for MISSION CRITICAL DATA is to have all data on one computer, have that computer isolated, and DO THE BACKUPS YOURSELF. And, test your backups weekly.
Just my opinion.
