I feel bad for the vendors ( Ampere, colo-hosts ) in this. It's a huge loss for the community that utilized it too, but there's a part of this that seems to resonate with my high-school dreams... I oogled the shiny big-iron racks in EWeek, and thought of the cool stuff I could do if I owned one of those dual Opteron boxes with so much RAM and all the gigs of storage (hundreds!)... I'm glad nobody dropped tens of thousands of dollars of servers on me before I discovered the weaknesses in my dreams and that servers are the cheap part if you haven't solved for cooling, power, network, people and moving money around. |
