It took a bit of work, but I got everything on the new hardware without a reinstall of the OS. It’s sooo much faster now. Everything should be back online now.
Tomorrow, Thursday, September 11, the site will be going down for upgrades. It will likely be down all weekend as I test hardware and make sure everything works okay.
My Linux box (the box hosting this site, in fact) is going to be upgraded by next weekend. It currently has a 866 Mhz CPU and 256mb of RAM, which has served me well for some time. I actually opted to use this slower hardware over my original Duron 1.2 Ghz box because it is a smaller form factor and consumes less power. At the time, that made a lot of sense to me, less power consumption and smaller footprint for a mostly idle machine.
