ASUS RT-N16

100% stable, takes a beating, super fast

makes wrt54GL's and friends look like ameteur hour.

I did.

I've got 4 branches, my branches and core are all 7206's with NPE300's and 2x 100meg line cards. Nothing AMAZING or huge, I know, but it quite easily handles my requirements and parts are plentiful (BOUGHT THEM REFURBE'D too!), but all of my switching is procurve. Lifetime warranty/updates/support, identical cli syntax, great price. Damn right i'm using as much procurve as I can! Here's to some solid competition between hp and cisco, both are good products, but i find it hard to argue against a lifetime warranty.

Yeah, i used to work near royal roads --> Port angeles. One thing Ive found out about shaw in the western communities (atleast langford) is that their speed has been very generous, i've got 'extreme' and they advertise upto 15megs/sec, but I hit 2MB downloads frequently (16megabit), so like wtf? :D
Ahwell, hello to you sir! From an man from langford (and no camaro on his lawn)

OK, so you live in mill bay or duncan? Or like down some logging road in shawnigan?
You're telling me you dont have shaw service out to where you live?!
You're exactly the reason why I'd love to setup wimax stations on some of the mountain tops. Feel for you sir.
Ps, from langford, just before the malahat starts.

For a brief second, I thought that TeamSpeak3 got an oscar Nomination.
I was (not so) shocked to see ventrilo was left out of the running. :P

Nuke 'em from orbit....It's the only way to be sure!

Was lucky enough to do some work with butanol while in school (O-chem, with some manufacturing chemistry)
Apparently nowdays there's several fancy nickel catalysts that do the trick, but with relatively low yields
BUT, fiberous bed bioreactors are the trick for half decent yields...
I'm out of chem now, I stuck with my computer nerd roots and am in a server room right now, but it was readily apparent (back in the day) that butanol was the clear choice for ease of transition, octane rating, transportability, and it's emissions are 'supposed to be' cleaner than current gas offerings.
ANYWAY, go butanol go! Not quite the same octane ratings as ethanol, but it'll run on almost any vehicle with very little-if any- tuning

I pledged $50, it's my most sincere hope that projects like this get off the ground. The students/hackers/tinkerers that are super into this kind of stuff could use all the tools they can get, I'm just a newbie when it comes to this stuff, but I can certainly respect it. Anyway, here's hoping that they hit 200% pledges, they're already at 115%!

Sure,
I have your problem solved right here:

Basically, it's a bare metal hypervisor for your systems. Fire up an image and you're good to go. Upgrade to new hardware? No problem, you're virtualized. Remote users with laptops? No problem, remote reimage works too.
Yay? :D

ITS OK,

Professor Moriarty will save us.

if not, then my friend Reg Barkley will hook his brain into the holodeck and become the new computer core. he's always on the holodeck anyway, right guys?

I'm currently building this baby up:

1 of these http://www.norcotek.com/item_detail.php?categoryid=1&modelno=rpc-4220
1 of these http://www.lsi.com/channel/products/raid_controllers/sata_sas/3ware_9750-8i/index.html
1 quad core Xeon + mobo + 8gigs of ram of your choice
1 of these http://www.chenbro.com/corporatesite/products_detail.php?sku=75
1 of operating system of your choice
20 of these http://www.wdc.com/en/products/products.asp?driveid=733
and then put on the media software of your choice (mine is ps3 media server)
This is all because my current (6tb) array got filled with media, home movies, tv shows and what have you. So, hopefully ~30tb (raid6 + 2 hotspares) will do the trick for a while.....
Probably WAY overkill for your use, but +hypervisor of your choice, its nice and easy to run as a media server and an ARMAII server or TF2 server....
lastly, check out i-star or istar usa, they have rackmount cases for prettymuch everything. Awesomeness! (50drive case....maybe for my next one, mwahaha)

Out west, We have Shaw. And their bandwidth cap is very forgiving, customer service with them is second to none. Not sure what the deal is heading east (manitoba and beyond) but out this way, shaw kicks ass :)

Dear Mr. Kotick,
You've already ruined infinity ward, please dont touch blizzard.

....You Greedy Asshat.

...it's no EVE..

Wow, and I got first! I win the antigame!
