Thanks for the feedback. I don't live in the house now, it just came on the market in a great location downtown Livermore. I'm getting the feeling that the sellers aren't interested in upgrading the electrical before they sell, so I'm trying to get a feel for what kind of leverage it gives me for offers. I'm really not interested in keeping any of the old wiring around. That knob and tube stuff scares the crap out of me. It's a beautiful home, though, and the elcetrical is about the only major issue I see. I think I'll talk to the city and see what the code says must be done, and talk to some old-school electricians.

Thanks again.
