I really look forward to hearing that the servers have been specced and ordered. A little bird told the kitties that Oscar was actually ordered this week. Takes campus purchasing a week or so to process the paperwork and cut the purchase order, and then delivery time from the vendor, etc.. Not sure what the final specs as ordered were decided on.

I really look forward to hearing that the servers have been specced and ordered. Even the base model would be a monster compared with what they have to work with now......and we already know they are loading it up with RAM no matter what.

Very impressed with the outpouring of support from everyone so far! Keep it up people, and hopefully someday soon we'll be able to look back and remember the Bad 'ol Days when we were plagued with all these hardware issues, and smile knowing we all made a difference and are responsible for having a smooth running project again. I am a member of public radio, have been for years, so I am quite familiar with these fund drives, and how user supported non-profit causes can be sucessfully funded. Bravo, Everyone, and Thank You! Here's my little bit for the cause Thank you for your gift of $175.00 via American Express on 10/17/2010.

how much of that has already been spent on the new hardware? Don't have exact numbers, but I would hazard a guess that the new HP servers ran about $20,000.00......give or take. I ran 3 fundraisers.......we have that much covered. "Time is simply the mechanism that keeps everything from happening all at once." ![]() |

how much of that has already been spent on the new hardware? With the donations still coming in they should be able to add all kinds of new bells and whistles to make these the bestest servers ever in the SETI closet! They will probably use any extra to upgrade and replace parts in the rest of their stable too. This is really great of all the loyal Setizens out there that have made these new servers possible just in the nick of time! ![]() PROUD MEMBER OF Team Starfire World BOINC |
