All the infrastructure's in place and doing things... power is included in the rent, but hey, takes what... 100W tops to run that server anyway? Bandwidth is free and clear, given the overall use of the network. I'm being a tiny bit vague but those are true facts. I even have a small pile of potential replacement servers that are out of their production date but would serve just fine as a forum server (hell, some of them are newer than the one I'm using). Somewhere there's a dual quadcore Xeon with 5x360GB drives that was taken out of service this spring, I should look that up just for something to fill an hour next week, supposedly there's an issue with the RAID controller but I have at least two unused LSI cards hanging around.
You guys must chew a steak right to pulp, lol

raid controllers, LSI cards. are we going to argue about the performance of a GPZ305 next?

I could just use this old piece of trash hanging around in my back room, I suppose.
It's yours free if you want, though. You have to pick it up.
So about that GZ305... I didn't even know they made one that size.

What happened to the one with polka dots and hello kitty?

I'm guessing by your lack of name dropping you about as much about current compute environments as you do about the GPZ..
Mine is bigger, costs less, has more power and runs on auto pilot!
my desk is powered by a F-USA superbike motor, from then good old days when yo u could run a full race superbike with a turbo or nitrous or methanol.
I use that as a server for my MySpace page.
You kids and your new internet shenanigans, No one talks to me in friendster anymore, what did I do?

In the interest of further one-upmanship, I have an Amiga 2000. Dual disk, baybee, yeah!
(geek note: for fun, I did actually have a rudimentary web server running on my Amiga 4000/040 on top of Matt Dillon's tcp stack around 1996... Matt later went on to write Dragonfly BSD)

I am willing to bet you bought it new.
I learned on a Vic-20 (still have one) but they had some PETs at school. Who remembers Icon computers?
