cost -> non-trivial, but I suppose that depends on how many hours Mr. Sutton 
and his co-workers spend trying to set up the CVS server.  ;-)

The original suggestion was really a joke.  I happen to be fond of Perforce 
and prefer many aspects of it (branch handling, integration tracking, and 
atomic changelists) to CVS...plus, Perforce's support has been very good.  
I've been meaning to try Subversion since it seems to have some of the things 
that I like about Perforce.  Just haven't had time yet.
