No, we need Narf to get out his megaphone and get the Angry Mob organized.

Words, just words - he wouldn't have dared to say otherwise I guess I do not trust these I-will-have-it-done-tomorrow guys more than, lets say, a Quicksilver programmer saying he has tested his programm...

But on the other hand, I *did* say a few days ago that I was hoping for saturday, maybe I should have faith in my own prophecies

Ok, anyone donating for tar and feathers or being able to get a good discount?

Geo,

The offer still stands for me to make a mirror of PBW and share it off the full T1 we have at work. Don't worry, I've alreay asked the CEO and he's OK with it. Ss the senior systems admin, I know we have the rack space, IP address, and most of the spare parts to do it.

Cable is not an option. I can get cable broadband, but my local cable provider does not offer a static IP, even at a premium. I might be able to get away with running a server since the IP #'s stay pretty stable unless the modem is reset. But I'd have to have the URL repointed occasionally.
www.no-ip.com? i am with a cable here with dhcp which expires every 3 hours and i have zele.sytes.net pointing on my current ip all the time (given the pc is on )
anyway i think this is good rest for some of us
