SRM has a bigger memory footprint and doesn't understand fdisk-style
partitions.  It's hard to switch to without re-installing.  SRM does allow
network booting via bootp.  I prefer it over ARC myself, but then again
I'm strange.  ;)

SRM is also better for headless machines, IMHO.  And mine is headless.
