    I'm using NewNet and they don't. You should switch!

    Since I left Metronet (after they got bought by PlusNet!), I've been with both IDNet and NewNet both of which are brilliant. Neither is expensive, and both provide problem free broadband without any port blocking or "traffic shaping". I would strongly recommend either!

  3. Re:Uh? by symbolset · · Score: 2, Informative · on Supermicro Announces Quad-Opteron 1U Motherboard
    Recommended 1KW power supply is not the same thing as consumes 1KW of power. The motherboard itself almost certainly consumes less than 100. It's the other stuff you might choose to plug into it that starts burning the watts. Four of this http://www.amdcompare.com/us-en/opteron/details.as px?opn=OSA850AVWOF, for example, would max out at 356W TDP. By the time you add VR efficiency and PSU efficiency into that equation you're pegging >550W of wall power just for the processors.

    If you actually built a rack full of 22-24 1KW 1U servers you should probably apply some forethought to how you're going to get rid of more heat than is generated by four of these:http://www.paragonweb.com/TNF1613.cfm. Also, you should probably have the power company increase the multiplier on your meter, lest it spin like an AOL CD on an angle grinder: http://homepages.newnet.co.uk/martynarnold/aol.htm

  6. No floppy, no AOL by rueger · · Score: 1 · on AOL Dumping Some Broadband

    Hmmph - you can count me among the people who wrote off AOL entirely when instead of sending me nice re-usable floppy disks they started sending non-reusable CDs.
