oh, I agree.... At first, only one division of 500 people or
so should be converted and then division by division they would
convert over. 500 people is just about right to see if it can
really work...

UPDATE: I found out that most of their processing is done at
night in batches. Thus, a distributed processing network would
work. Just leave the machines on at night when you go home and
the 500 machines would chug away at the claims, etc.
