Agreed.  I'm naive about the ways but I've tried t master/slave and
found it only good for a backup storage of data.  You can not do 
inserts to the slave.  

I was originally looking for a way to cluster 2+ servers and have anyone
of them step into place during failover.  The only thing I could think
of was do inserts,deletes, modifications on all of them.  So one insert
execution would do an insert on all databases in the group.
