7.  When you go into the administration section none of the graphics work.  
You need to change the alias in httpd.conf to "Alias /interchange-5/ 
/var/www/html/interchange-5/".  This assumes you have Red Hat like myself.

8.  The accessories code on the recieipts doesn't work the way it did.  If 
you use sizes or any other accessory code, you may have to customize it 
like I did.
