I distinctly remember crawling, from a hallway, into an open area with a kitchen/dining room on the right, and a living room on the left. There was a girl my age there too. I described it to my mother once, when I was a late teenager. She had NEVER told me about the house I was in when that old, in fact she was genuinely surprised that I remembered it. We didn't live there very long, only until I was a year old or so. I also have a phobia regarding stairs. I hate all stairs, particularly those that are open between the stairs (like those commonly used outdoors). I was dropped down stairs of that type when I was only about 3 months old. No permanent damage, but I still hate stairs at 26 years old.
Hmmm looks alot like the mach3 XB-70 from the 60's. Only two were ever completed, one crashed. Perhaps this was Boeing's way of testing the market for what could have likely been a *supersonic* transport marketed as a subsonic transport. Of course, once it gets a few miles off the coast, it gets a higher throttle setting and boom its mach 1+. Who knows?
Having done this, I can tell you that the simplest, most painless way is to mirror the machine, point DNS from the old location, and change your DNS IP's at opensrs. Once traffic stops flowing at the old colo center, down that machine, and move it to the new noc. Then use your mirror box to do the same to another machine. We did it with Linux (rh 6.2-7.3). Windows may be more difficult but I don't know anything about that.
We did all this when moving from 4 T1's to a DS3, last year.
Actually you can buy cd players for dj'ing that speed up, slow down, count beats per minute, do really wild things you wouldn't think possible. A friend is a dj, has one of these (two actually) its very cool.
"No no no son you're going about it all wrong". Think Orinco wireless equipment. Secure, inexpensive. Now all you need is some space at a repeater site, and a high speed connection to service your customers with. A guy I know persnally is doing this in the Reno, NV area and is doing quite well. The setup fee is around $250, but its only $50/mo. All on 2.4ghz with rooftop antennae and big collinear (sp?) arrays on the towers. He has a T1 in Reno, shoots that over the mountains (two repeater sites with line of sight) via 5.8ghz, and drops into Fernley, which is a small town w/ nothing but 56K. V'oila, high speed ISP.
His website is fernley.net, but I don't think he uses that site anymore.
I have a server room w/ over 100 2u/4u units installed, and numerous routers/switches etc. This room isn't optimal, because it has a false ceiling installed, but it does have its own A/C. We keep it at 72. Our other server room also stays at 72, but its noticably cooler in there because the ceiling is over 20 feet high. Heat rises ya know?
So, unless you have VERY sensitive equipment, or some other special reason for keeping it that cold, 72 is fine.
What I don't understand is why these aren't being recycled just like computers get recycled (NOT by kids in China mind you). The batteries are nothing new, either.

A few years ago I needed a (then) high speed link between my garage and my home, and ethernet was too expensive, so I put together a 19.2kbps setup that I found in an electronics magazine. I used two old 286's to setup the link, and over the years I've even managed to set it up to be able to surf the internet (using my P3 as a gateway to the DSL) and it hasn't gone offline in 6 years. In fact I'm typing on it righÿf(TM)ÿffÿf3ÿf ÝçîOEÜ©ë÷ÿf(TM)ÿffÿf3ÿf ÝçîOEÜ©ë÷

Almost forgot! Here's pix of the xb70

Now I'm going to get charged every time a song pops in my head?!
Seriously though this is pretty cool. Maybe they can now engineer a christmas song that won't get stuck in your head.
Moores Law reaches YOU!

That sucks, OS X looked promising too. Just waiting for it to be ported to x86
