Big Thanks to Miguel

Thanks SURPASS CREW!!!

I just got back from the network operations center. I got an awesome tour given by Miguel.

First of all, I know that I am in the right industry (web hosting)...When I pulled up in what I thought was a nicer car (05 350z) I was put to shame when getting in the parking lot. I was met with newer M3, new 328, a benz (didn't see model). I wish Kayla was there, because I REALLY wanted to see her S4.

But anyways...


After I got buzzed in I was met by Miguel and few other staff. Miguel showed me the redundant power supply (UPS), the generator, all the dedicated boxes, shared/reseller racks, met some of the support team, and also where they create the servers.

I took some pics of the center, enjoy!

Sorry the pics are pretty big, and didn't have time to resize it.

Thanks again for your time guys!!!

The S4 is nice, but the M3 is sexier

Incase you can't tell,

The M3 is marks (Mark)
and the A4 is AlexChaos.

The Benz CLK320 is Miguels
I was checking out your 350z (was looking at getting one awhile ago, I drive the 07 CTS)... Was pretty nice.

Oh, I'm paul btw I meet you at the door and answered your buzz
