I don't particularly care about all the technical specs of the boxes -- I 
just need to know what we need in general, what we plan to use it for, and 
how much it's going to cost.

There shouldn't be any budget issues for a couple of thousand dollars 
worth of boxes, but that's only if I can give a useful accounting of what 
the money is buying us.
