If you want to keep the full subject line, thats great, you just have the option of dropping it to name only if you'd like.

Aernoeth it is a lot, but this site generates an amazing amount of traffic. I havent seen any concrete numbers but I think I saw someone swinging around numbers to the tune of 150GB/month (course I could just be on glue - take this with more than a pound of salt). Added to dedicated server hosting on a backbone and it adds up a lot. I think I heard Morrus say that he owns the server so it doesnt include space costs.

Yup. ENWorld runs on a dedicated server, hosted somewhere, from what I gather. Typical hosting costs from what I've seen at 150-250 for a good place (backup power, people to reset your box, stuff like that), plus he has to have an insane amount of traffic (I'd buy 150gigs, especially if the store sends out their pdf's over his pipe).

A week's gone by since the last IC post by "That Scottish Play"


How are we holding up?

 

[Macbeth]

Sorry, there's beena series of worms on the campus network. I should be able to post tomorrow, assuming the network dosen't get hit again.

Macbeth - sounds like my school. When I plugged in my computer in August, I was infected with the Blaster worm within a half hour. Some people were infected in as little as 10 minutes, sometimes less. Big pain in the neck, just wanted to commiserate.

Finally seems that the network is up for the time being, and I managed to get an IC post up. Very sorry for the wait, If I could have posted earlier I would've.

I'm going on vacation (Kauai and Maui) from Thursday November 20 and won't be back until Sunday December 7. During this time most likely I won't have any access to a computer.

Sounds rough Cordo. Have fun! Swim in the ocean for me!

 

[Macbeth]

I just got back from a weekend vacation myself, so I'm ready to get some posts in the IC thread. I'm having a hard time telling: have you guys decided on a course of action? As soon as you decide what you want to do, I'll do an IC post on the outcomes, but i need to know what you are planning.
