      How did it go?

      I think it went really well. It's for an IT Consultant at the University of Pittsburgh. It's a desktop/server support role. I'd really like to get into Linux Administration somewhere if I can, but I'll take this as a growth opportunity if I get it.

                  My brain is going haywire today. I was talking with somebody about UPSes in their test environment, lol.

                    Looks like major travel changes again. Have to figure out how to squeeze in a nine day cruise from London to Norway in June.

                          You can stall as long as you want as long as they owe you and not the other way around.

                            I had a friend who finally got around to getting them done after 5 years - he was in the same (assuming they owe you) situation.

                                That is one heck of a setup for a lab!

                                Did you buy a rack for it, just because? meh - it's only $200 for a rack, why not make it look pretty

                                lol

                                  @Dashrender I couldn't even afford the power bill to run those 2 servers!

                                    @Dashrender I personally purchased the servers switch and pdu (mostly ebay) myself and got my employer to purchase the rack since they are always complaining about how unorganized my office is 😉

                                      Wait - what? you paid for the hardware? are they going to reimburse you now that you're using it at their office to their benefit?

                                        I really like the rack, its on casters so I can roll it where i want it, then roll it out of the way if not using it.

                                          @Dashrender I originally purchased it to play with stuff at home, but decided to leave it at the office and use it here for now. I didn't spend very much money, i got the servers for $75/ea.

                                            What are the servers? and how much storage did you get?
