I dunno... but the set-up I gave was overly heavy on magic (would you
really ward every floor?). It probably evens out. OTH, that's only _one_
site, and a relatively small site at that. And I think the Matrix cost
might be overly low also... at least for a top-notch system. Most corp
sites can't afford to have dedicated, non-Matrix access security, after
all.
