They are almost instant now - is this some special sort of wire that has pre-cognition to get me there even before I think about where to go?

That is a lot of power; I hope you use it sensibly.

Its been up and down lately. Somedays its pretty fast yet others its been slow to non-responsive.

Most of the slow times have been late at night so was assuming that you guys were doing maintenance on the computers.

Am I to understand that a 10MB pipe allows for the triumphant return of the grid-girls thread?

10Mb bi-directional?? Who is providing that? Dedicated? is that a 6xT1 configuration?? WiMax maybe?

Inquiring minds want to know ....

Jordi,
I was wondering it it's SONET, Muxed T1's, fractional T3 or something like that. It's been awhile since I worked with WAN bandwidth, so I'm curious.

Very good news. I was just getting ready to make a post asking what happened to the server. Most days it seems like I have a dial up modem. At home I have DSL and at work I have a T-1 line.

Mike,
You're the "techie"! You've probably forgotten more than I'll ever know!

Would housing your servers in a data center be a PITA?
