Sounds good to me. That would be what I want. Kayla just didn't really expand on her thought, which leaves it open to interpretation, I guess.

I should just send them my 900mhz duron machine and say "this is my server. please connect." the laughter through out the building would echo for days.

actually, that is what i had set up as a home web server.

It wouldn't take the load of hundreds of users on hundreds of sites, but there's no reason it wouldn't work as long as you don't run it into the ground.

Oh yeah, I know. It was working fine for the time I had it set up, but I wasn't doing anything extreme on it. I had IB 2.0 set up on it and Xoops 2.0.7.1 as well, but wasn't really doing anything other than testing stuff and teaching myself things. Still, it would be funny to see this up their with all of their stuff once they take pictures of everything:

Is it a tower? If so, I don't think they'll collocate it for you. The price lists only for 1u/2u cases.

*edit*

The image wasn't loading at first, so I didn't know there was one there. Yes, it's a tower. I don't think you could collocate that. :P

We will colo just about any type of server. We prefer you send a black one as to not interrupt our style, j/k.

Here is picture of one of our rows.

Note: Image edited to appear magical.. and to make you want your server here..

Wow Dave, how could you not do that?

The "magical" advertising method is quite effective, even John can see...
