But if you know what the problem is... and you have an image of the server in a working state, or a documented procedure on how to set up the server in it’s intended configuration then why would anyone waste time trying to repair it.
How do you know that the issue that occurred wasn't because of how the server was initially setup and reimaging is just a time bomb waiting to recur?
Whoopy doo, this site is based out of the US. There are a boat load of stories from Australia every week, so realise that WA is a state abbreviation for Western Australia. I know it's hard to understand that other countries have states and abbreviations. But that's the way the world works.
This is the Internet, not the united states of internet.
Any time I send an email to a group of people who don't know each other or other's email addresses. Like, people who signed up for a beta test or something
I definitely wouldn't rule online backup out. Unlimited backup providers like Crashplan, Carbonite, etc. certainly provide a service that can be very useful.
Sure, if ALL you do is stream movies... let's also remember their cap is total, up and down. I somehow used 495GB of bandwidth last month with a combination of the Steam xmas sale, being home and streaming movies and anime from netflix, podcasts, crashplan backups. All legit traffic.
One steam game, 12GB backing up online (I did just 137GB in this last month from a single PC) 2GB per day for two computers, another 60 GB 2GB in other assorted network use per day (youtube, itunes), 60GB
Now we're down to 2 movies a day.
With only a single connection for a family of four, that's not an inconceivable usage scenario.

While that may make sense on one level, the time it takes to setup the software on that machine is not zero.

Yeah, cause we all know that newspapers only report on news local to them...
considering the HUGE amount of stories that come from Australian sources on this web site, SOME context would be nice you know.
I live in the US and wasn't sure which WA it was referring to.
How about a little context in the post about which WA we are talking about...

The only bad acting in that film came from the female lead....
Is that 30% for as long as they keep renewing or is it 30% for the initial term? How does one determine if it's a new subscriber?
Also, charging the same price in and out of the apple verse could increase prices for all
+1 It's late Monday morning. Anybody who would have cared would have known about this days ago
Is it the 80s again?
Does S3 really only use a single data centre?
The family plan is awesome. Unlike with services that charge on a per computer plan, I can have up to ten machines backing up to the same account.
Mine, my wife's notebook, my notebook and the Linux server in the basement...

No, if you go over they cut you off for a year. Big difference.

The extra 1% or 2% that pushes you from 99% to 100% or 101% that gets you booted off their network for a year certainly costs you...

One movie can be 1% of a comcast cap, that's not marginal in my books.
Since it uses 2 or so GB per HD movie streamed, your comcast caps will be pushed. The USPS hasn't called me up saying I have used too much mail.
Fox is actively deleting comments on that story, so who knows what anyone is really saying?
can't wait for an amazon app store.
if it's not available at a local store, and most tech stuff isn't, reviews are your only option.
comcast does, 250 GB
try customisability then
