We need a new server!
« on: January 29, 2014, 09:29:48 AM »
TheSwamp is in need of a new server. The current one is 3 years old. It has served roughly 30 million pages and processed over a terabyte of data. I would very much like to replace it. I can purchase a decent one from Dell for about $700.

Please invest in the future of this fine community and DONATE a few dollars to help pay for a new server.

Thank you very much!
