Off Topic Did EB Get a New Server?

[Larry]

Site was down today for quite a bit and now seems a lot faster.

Is it just me?

could have been typical system maintenance... working in IT we often have to take the systems down from time to time... although it does seem a bit faster so they could have switched to a virtual server which is quite common these days and they're very fast

[peterd79]

Not being picky by no means. Just an observation.

The old server had better threads than the new one.

The old server used tubes and was painted with nitrocellulose . The new one uses modelisation and an awful poly paint !

It does seem faster for me as well. Also, does anyone else use Firefox? The site never looks right in regular Firefox. I use the IE Tab extension to view the site to get it to look right. Not sure if its a javascript or css thing.

Geek alert!

I think that it's faster too.

Big or small dots on this new server?

Not sure about the dots but I heard the top really sucks.

Scott, make sure you have a left-handed keyboard, too

 

[leftyguitarblue]

I do!! Most people use a "qwerty" keyboard, I use a "ytrewq" keyboard.

Most people don't have to wear a safety helmet when they type though.

Well, I wear one when I'm with your mother; I don't want to fall in or bump my head on one of her tusks.
