  That was what I initially tried to do, and found it rather daunting,
although for reasons I do not clearly recall.  It is probably worth
re-examining.

  At this point, it's only used for testing and is not enjoying active
use because it's too unstable.  When I get beyond that point, I agree.

Well why not buy a couple of licenses and test with those.  I am sure it won't break the bank. 

No sense testing with something you are not even going to use in production, right? 

Generally, when I test something that may go into production, I test with what I plan on using in production, seems to make more sense that way to me anyways.
