Home setup

@thegillion Work auction at a company (Canadian Sports Institute) with very few IT staff and even fewer people interested in computers. If it had included workout gear or fitness stuff the opposite would have happened.

I think we need to talk in the future! I could use some gear.
For $37 CAD, that is a steal.

Why the hell would you have some old ass Itanium box? Certainly NTG doesn't get that many requests for HP-UX.

Mike Ralston

@PSX_Defector I've never even powered it up. It's just there.

You are just jealous. It's a sweet box. Just need to get the interns to get it set up. Will be perfect for running BSD.

@nadnerB I'm fortunate to live where power is exceptionally inexpensive & that (turning it off) is always a good idea!

Reference material, page 6 - while not the cheapest here (near Vancouver on the map), sub 10c/kwh is pretty good.
