Cool!

My clubs have PA systems so I don't have to bring an amp or speakers. I bring:

!. Rack mount computer in a hard shell carring case

2. A small TV monitor

3. A cord bag

4. Two mic stands

5. Six books

(and a small sound monitor at one place)

I like to travel light.

Your system sounds like it's way above anything I've seen around here. No downtime is awsome! Just for the sake of comparison:

1. How much does your rig weigh?

2. Do you need a van or a trailer to tote it around?

One time in three plus years I had to reboot due to crash (I istalled a freeware mp3 player that I quickly removed when I got home). I have hit the restart button on the keyboard with my sleeve a few times but that would fall under KJ error.
