I'm on here all the time since my TA is in storage. I have to live vicariously through the peeps still driving their LS1s and from the info on the site till spring comes. Once it time, I'll be out cruising instead of wishing I was cruising.

That's what happens when you have a great product. All we need now is an IPO date.

The data center our rack is in sits on over 25Gbits/sec. of available bandwidth to multiple peering points. Our rack is connected to the network over a regular ol' 100Mbit ethernet crossconnect. There are four servers in the rack, the slowest being a single P4 2.4GHz with 1GB ram and the fastest being a dual XEON 3.06GHz with 4GB ram. We consistently upgrade/add servers when necessary. Average sustained data throughput to the internet during our "regular business hours" is around 6Mbit/sec. We will often peak up to around 50Mbit/sec. Average data transfer per month is around 1.3 terabytes.
