    Ok, so here's a little more concrete question.  What percentage of a
    machine would you spend on machines for log analysis?  (if your network
    had 100 workstations worth $1,000 each, how much money would you spend for 
    log analysis (only including machine and software costs)?)
    
    One answer i've recieved is between 1 and 5 percent.
    
    Thanks,
    Jim
