    MSPNick you planning on automated re-installs etc or all done via remote hands?

    For the current time it'll be remote hands.

    I'm looking to use easydcim once released.

    Huh...not sure I'm keen on the idea of Virgin Media...

    We use VM and BT for peering at work across 10-20 sites, I have to say BT's is probably faster (even though I'm a VM fan of such!) but even so they're not too bad as some people suggest

    "Hello India, our 10GigE line is down?"

    "Sir, please switch off the modem at the wall, wait two minutes and power on again."

  • @kcaj - thats about right, but you missed out the 15 minute wait, then the fact that when you give them the circuit number they can't understand you, then they ask you what type of DSL you have and when you explain its a wavelength service, they tell you to call another number, which comes right back to the same person!

    I'd take an Atom 230, pending more info on your DC and a little more insight as to how the offer is viable, as I don't want to lift and shift a bunch of stuff from a Kimsufi only to have to move it back again.

    I'm going to PM you Nekki.

  • Before we go and take everything to install.

    I must ask. Any more requests?

    I don't have any e3s yet but I'm on the look out for them

  • Some E5450 servers (maybe even dual?) would be nice for a reasonable price. Plenty of them kicking about for £200ish nowadays. Only thing would be power consumption

    Just around the a509. 2 mins away from m1

  • Waiting for the final price :)

  • Hello.

    Just to let you know that we have our first server up in the UK.

    Colo is going to be first.

    Then these servers.

    Then we are going to be buying some e3s

  • Hope we will see plenty more providers offer UK locations :)

    If anybody is interested. £56/mo for colocation.

    Or. For month for free just pay rack and stack!

  • instead of getting those Atom servers would it not have been cheaper getting some good pentiums (such as the G3258) which rivals most AMD FX Processors.

    The atom will be slightly delayed as I am currently building some of them

  • Or even some celeron g1820t's, they have those at scan.co.uk. Low power. cheap and decent performance.
