The Hamsters Have Landed!
The new servers for Geograph arrived this morning, behold the almighty Tower of Power!
The supplier for this lot was World of Computers and they’ve been very helpful in my dealings with them. They were recommended to me and so far they’ve been great. They even deliver the stuff themselves in their own van. I like that. It might cost them a bit more, but they can be sure it’s taken care of in transit and is received by the right person. Nice
Geograph is a spare time project and I’m on an absolutely monster schedule for the next few weeks to launch a new product, so it could be several weeks before we get these babies racked up. I’ll write more about the architecture of the new setup as I do it…

Best of luck Paul and all the mods. The boxes are piled as high as the pending pics and all this lovely weather.

Is that what you call ‘One small step for geograph, one giant leap for the hamsters’? Hope all goes well as you put it all together.

Now that’s a nice big pile of kit!
