Hey Zack, Thanks for the encouraging words.  I also am an Arch user
and took the chance tonight.  In case you didn't pick up on it, the
arch folks have a nice write-up in their wiki at
http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/GRUB2
where a lot of warm-up instructions are available.  It made me feel
more comfortable with going for it.  As it is, I had one goof where my
box would not boot.  I had to use Chris's talking install disk to boot
my machine and correct the grub.cfg file.  The default values do not
include /boot in front of the kernal image nor the initram image.
After fixing that, I'm all good now.
