Sincere Thanks to Crunchbits for the Incredible Giveaway Prize!

weir1

Huge thanks to @crunchbits for the epic giveaway! I still can't believe I won that insane server with 69GB RAM, 100GB SSD, and 10TB HDD. I was looking to upgrade and this incredible prize fell into my lap - for free!! Crunchbits, you made my year with this. Your generosity and kickass giveaways really impact the community. Sincerest appreciation!

// Don't be mad at OP - topic where he won that thing is closed to troll @Calin so if he ever wanted to do it publicly (and I think like everyone here would feel obligate to do so) he needed to open new one. Btw. this is all part of @crunchbits master plan to dethrone dustin from most topics about one brand on first page.

That thread was intense! The number of assigned RAMs and SSDs that was being thrown around was ... cartoonishly large!

Their last prize was fantastic too. I was early enough and had an opportunity to grab one for 1 month but skipped so other 15 applicants could win a long term deal (I'm talking about that ~$3.5/mo 1TB SSD 10Gbps VDS).

Hey no worries, you can thank @sh97's script Had a legitimate blast, now just getting everyone's stuff rolled out as our office is overflowing with hardware and builds at the moment.

I'm excited to see how this works out 'in the wild'. In our testing it's been great, but you never know once you push it out. @Cloudie has been pushing for this type of product for awhile anyways, only seemed fitting to roll the first ones out at a completely unsustainable doesn't-even-pay-for-the-disk-let-alone-opex pricing
