New Server and Site Location

30 Jun 2007

This is just a quick heads-up that I am moving this site and most of my services that I offer people to a new server this means for a while things will be odd.

The new machine is still with Blackcat Networks who I never hesitate to recommend to anyone. The new machine was purchased from DNUK who specialize in Linux servers, their service were great and managed to build me a machine that would fit into 0.5Amp power usage easily.

The final spec is a AMD X2 3800+, 2 x 250GB drives and 2GB memory, all happily running at around 0.4Amp. The old server is a Dell 1550 1Ghz PIII, so this will be a very welcome upgrade.
