    On 3 year old HP servers.. Hmmm

    We put in a new virtualisation server with 4 quad core Xeons and 32GB RAM.. I think you would be ok with something like that.Its running 20 Windows 2003 server machines on it at the moment. Just a complete test LAN to test stuff.

    I am sure it depends on your VOIP solution of course.

    Ok - With that sort of specs it would definately work - what are you using as the host os? And how much did that thing cost if you don't mind me asking

    Windows 2003 Datacenter edition 64Bit. Means all Virtualisation OS licences are free as they are covered under the Datacenter licence. Cost of the server was in the region of 6K i think from Dell..

    Included 2 146GB 15K SAS drives .. but it does have access to a SAN as well.

    We got a preferred rate from Dell because of the amount of business we do with them

    Thats quite reasonable so about 8k i suppose for your average business...and how muc is data center edition?

    Still a hell of a lot cheaper than buying 10severs!!!

    Like the 15k drives they definately make a difference - i'm one of these people who's lucky enough to have a macbook pro with a 7200rpm drive which really makes audio and video work easier and faster.

    Well...I admit I lied. I'm not really that big at all. At least physically. In fact, petite might be a more appropriate term. :o

    Maybe if she turned up to a BULBS I may have made her acquaintance before now!! ;) :rolleyes:
    I will be at the next BULBS without fail. I hereby pledge to make an appearance. Pending my availability of course, but it will take priority. :)

    God I do not like being back. The realisation that I've done **** all for the last 9 weeks to the point that I couldn't remember the name of one of my lecturers last night... Well its safe to say that unless one removes the finger fairly lively and works like a mad badger for the next 6 weeks my time at UL could be no more. Perhaps I should configure net nanny to block boards.....:eek:

    Now I must go to a tutorial that I've done absolutely nothing for. In fact I think this is the first tutorial of this particular module I'll have been to. :eek:

    Hmm, the faeces will be hitting a rotary air conditioning machine pretty soon.

    Well you see Rory, when animals get in heat one generally brings them to the vet to ahem *remove* the aforementioned heat. And Kaimera I mean my cat, is in heat.

    OoO so she's a fan of the sandpaper hand shandies then? I can tolerate the grade 2 stuff myself but anything over grade 2 is uncomfortable. To say the least. :pac:

    I've no idea if F_M is a fan of hand shandies of any kind but I'm sure she'll enlighten us all at some stage.

    That the road you come on to when coming out the East gate?

    I dunno what the **** is going on there. There is now streetlamps placed directly onto tarmacadam, about 2 metres in from the edge of the footpath. No idea.

    Limerick Co Co love creating hassle. Now if only they'd put a pedestrian crossing up by Groody...

    In fairness though, that road did need resurfacing: it was a joke. Although they could have a job at the road going into Elm Park as well, and the road going into Curragh Buirín... Anyone get stuck in that crater? (And crater is not an exaggeration: it's a bloody massive hole!)

    I live there, and I blame 2 slow punctures and a battered exhaust on that pothole. Its been there for too long, but they're probably afraid to do anything with it since there is construction going on right beside it.
