Its Here

The server came. That’s partially why I’ve been slacking. I installed FreeBSD, got some power usage figures, then realized it only has an 80gig hard drive. Well, that won’t do. I did luck out and it came with two gigs of ECC ram instead of just one. I’m waiting on a newer WesternDigital Caviar Green drive now and then I’ll try to find a good colocation provider in the Seattle area, get some rails, and away we go.
Specs on the server:
Dual Intel Xeon LV 2.8gHz (hyperthreading)
250gig Western Digital Caviar Green
2gigs of DDR2-800 ECC ram
ATI Radeon Mobility onboard graphics
Dell PowerEdge SC1425 1u rackmount case

Dude, that’s awesome! Am I detecting a complete site overhaul? Shall I call Chip Foose?

What’s wrong with the site? Other than the theme doesn’t really work with WordPress 2.9.2 all that well. I’ve been making #336699 look good since 1998!

Nothing’s wrong with it. But think of the potential!
