The fact that the child is a lot more *squishy* than the car has little to do with it. If you want a comparable situation, think of throwing a turkey at 100mph at a parked car. I guarantee you that car's not going to come out looking to good.

I'm already assuming the feathers have been removed.
Assuming Wal-Mart and Tesco are PCI-DSS compliant, this invalidates the recent claim by the PCI group that there have been no breaches of PCI compliant merchants.
GoDaddy dba WildWest has an API, but we seem to have ended up being guinea pigs for it, and it didn't go well. Their documentation had features that didn't exist, promised 24-hour turnaround on support failed,... It's working OK now, but I can't really recommend it.
I'll take Hunter S. Thompson's word on the matter, he was there, watching him, and being much more vocal on the matter of government corruption than teenage druggies give him credit for now.
I know, that's what I was trying to point out to jhw539 above; that outside air at night may be TOO humid to use for pumping into the datacenter, and I'm guessing that dehumidifying it may not be much cheaper than running the A/C instead.
And I was thanking you for the 60% ref.
Personally, I think more swimming pools should be used as liquid cooling to improve the efficency of air conditioners... you heat the pool for almost free, and your a/c runs cooler. I don't know how bad the corrosion would be, but some people do it.
There was an article in the Orange County Register last week that says traffic here is down, but it's really poorly written. First it blames gas prices, and says "traffic was down (about 10%) one day from a year ago, but then two days it was higher (by about 5%) than a year ago", and then they say that maybe it's students on vacation and some other stuff.
It seems like there's no solid data, or no one is intelligent enough to put it together.
Personally, I'd blame the vacations, and the extremely hot weather we've had here in the last month... it certainly makes me want to stay in during the day.

You must be right... shows what I get for listening to highly paid consultants.
The wikipedia article is confusing...
"(RAID 10) is not as robust as RAID 10 and cannot tolerate two simultaneous disk failures, unless the second failed disk is from the same stripe as the first."
This seems to imply that a 4-disk RAID 10 could handle any two failures... - Anyways, pretty disappointing; this means RAID 10 isn't any more reliable than RAID 5, just faster and more expensive?
No matter what hardware you go with, make sure you have a UPS if you use RAID5 or 6; 2 sequential outages can cause loss of ALL of your data, if there was a write during the first outage.
The problem is the RAID will start rebuilding when the power comes back, and a second outage at that point is often fatal.

10/100 NIC only on those though. Same for the new Intel Atom board... lame...

The C3 isn't PIII compliant, so a lot of modern software won't run on it. The C7 is fine though.

Try NFS on OSX instead of SMB if you're having problems. Of course, you'll have to find or build a NAS that supports NFS, but that's not hard.

Huh? 32-bit, 33MHz PCI gives you 133MB/s. If you have four hard drives you might saturate this
Don't forget you may be sharing the PCI bus between both the controller AND the NIC. (I know, it's less likely with an onboard NIC on certain motherboard chipsets.)
I own an NV+ and it's a great little device except for one thing: It won't automatically turn on after losing power.
That may be a feature... say you're running raid5, and a write is occurring when the power goes out. Power comes on, oops, the parity's corrupt... hot-restripe the whole set... If a second power failure happens during that, you're completely screwed.
This is also why it's REALLY important to have a UPS on your raid5 boxen.
RAID-5 is no good, the odds of getting a single read error when rebuilding your array after a drive failure are getting to be too high as aray sizes increase.
I think the "best practice" is to stripe across smaller raid5's instead of to build big raid5 sets.
I suppose you could even do a logical raid5 or 6 on top of multiple physical raid5s.

If you use SOCKS in FireFox, does DNS get looked up locally or through SOCKS?
I use

which sorta spells something too, I suppose. :p

That sounds even worse than shrimp-flavored potato chips.
