Okay I think I need a little more
The difference, however, is me spending another $462 dollars.
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 ,that is what we have right now. But what if it doesn't work, it owuld be such a waste of money.

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

Paul Visco Cashes Out Of Second Life
I ended up cashing out of secondlife to do it. It was a surprising simple end to a long journey. I really didn't play anymore and the fact that my Linden Dollars had bcome worth so much seemed so arbitrary and fake, like it could just go poof any momment.
Bye, bye Apfeljung Longwell
Love,
Paul

Flash Upload and Leopard
FOR NOW USE THE MOBILE VERSION OF THE SITE TO UPLOAD FILES ON LEOPARD.
Adobe is aware of this problem and is working on a fix. It is not limited to estrip multifile flash based uploads but happens on any site with flash uploading including Flickr.
I filed this bug report with Adobe.
[box]
- BUG******
This example from my javascript/flash toolkit worked on tiger no problem to upload small jpegs. It no longer works on leopard.
However, It is not limited to my surebert toolkit.
Another popular javascript/flash upload library called swfupload is also not working in leopard but worked in tiger.
Same for the flickr flash upload utility. The flash upload file selector box appears, but then it doesn't seem to send anything.
Steps to reproduce bug:
1. Try uploading
2. Try uploading a file
3. Try uplaoding images to flickr using their newer flash based upload utility.
Results: The files do not upload, no requests hit the servers access or error logs.
Expected results: The files should upload like they do on tiger[/box]
UPDATE
This has been resolved and there is a new version of the flash player for mac that you can download from adobe labs.

I need your help, please read
This
is an example of what I am looking to buy. I plan on setting it up and then switching it out with the old one all upgraded and ready for the future.
It is really in everyone best interest that this happens so that we can have a safe backup server and a raid array as well. If you peeps can raise $500 altogether I will match it (in addition to a couple hundred hours of time) and we can get it going.
In return you get to know estrip will safely go on for another 3 years of serving and you can get a title and a gold star on your big userpic.
I am also going to try and sell some of my stuff to raise some additional money but any help is appreciated.
Or if anyone has any fundraiser ideas? Feel free to organize them.
HOW DO YOU DONATE?
Through paypal:

The reason I do not build my own ajay, is because I don't have any extra time. I built the last one. It was fine. I ordered all the parts separately, put in the chips, the paste hte ram, the hardrive. Screwed everything together, etc.
It takes time. No matter how easy it is. I am going to be dealing with several vendors for the parts, more time shopping, the time to put it together. Waiting for everything to come separately and then pickig it all up from the post office at night because I can't let them leave the server parts outside my house. Its not worth it when I can get a perfectly good used one for not that much more and have a two year warranty on it. I don't know if you ever had a Dell machine under warranty but hey basically service everything quickly.
I am already going to be doing so much software configuration.
As for the form factor you are right, I don't need a 1U in fact I would rather have a 2U for expandability as ease of working on it. However, the Dell I was looking at is not new but a used one, that comes how it is.
When I priced out a new supermicro with CPU and hardrives, the used supermicro one I put the link to was cheaper.
