The New Server Arrives
![image](/content/users/news/1107/Specs1107.jpg)
I still can't believe the specs - 2x dual core 3.0 ghz, 2x73 hardware raided 15k drives, 1333mhz front side bus, 4GB of ram, redundant power supply, dual nics.
It was in perfect shape.

It is so quiet that honestly, I think our Xbox is louder.
I can't believe I got it for ~$1800 considering its cost for the same exact specs if I bought it on the Dell site right now $6,000+

I transfered ownership on the Dell website for the warranty and service plan which runs through 2010.

Traffic
This last month we had 23,000 visitors.
![image](/content/users/news/1107/EstripVisitors1105.png)
Imagine if there were some other incoming links. Anyone have any they could put up somewhere, there estrip link code on the front page of the site.
![image](/content/users/news/1107/EstripSources1105.png)
The only out of the ordinary referrer is a google images search for britney spears pussy. Which brings my journal even with adult content filtering on. But that only counts for 3% of visitors. Which is only 30 out of 1000. Although, I still can't believe we rank so high for it. Check it out or try for yourself

We are on a general upward trend. Here we are since last April when I started tracking with google analytics.

Bought the New Server - $1869
2 x 73GB 15k SAS drives Raid - upgradeable to 1TB
2 x 3.0 GHz dual core xeons - upgradeable to Quad core
4GB ram - upgradeable up to 32GB
1333 mhz front size bus
redundant power
RHEL certified
Small form factor - although as Ajax pointed out this doesn't matter for us, unless we are in a rack someday.
4 hours of onsite service from dell before Jan 2008
4 more hours of onsite service from dell before jan 2010
gold service warranty till 2010
Best of all it all comes from one place to my house and I already paid for it. With shipping it came to $1,869. Selling the vaio laptop for (e:ladycroft) or (e:drew) will defray the cost. If anyone else didn't donate and still wants to, feel free - I am going to leave the message up for a bit.

Okay I think I need a little more
The difference, however, is me spending another $462 dollars.
![](https://estrip.org/media/images/link.gif)
At least we won't need a windows license!
If anybody still wants to donate, now is the time. I might just have to pay for it up front as the auction ends in 13 hours!
Also, if anyone want to buy my old Vaio s360 cuteass laptop (e:paul,31660) I am willing to part with it for $500 to make up the extra money. It is still a great computer. It was around $2000 when I got it less than 2 years ago.
On the other hand I might just go ahead and risk it on another supermicro

Leopard multifile upload fix
Just download and install it. Make sure you have you browser off when installing. It will prompt you about that.
