Are they really Community systems? In what sense? They are community systems in the sense that JoshB told the community Sun donated a box and MyYearbook said they donated a box. MyYearbook had stated that we (cmd) were going to manage the MyYearbook box but nothing has come of it as of yet. I haven't heard anything on the Sun machine in a *long* time. My guess is that everyone is busy. So I have a question :)... The community does have money. We have IO available, what we don't have is a machine. Would the community be interested in purchasing a box? We could fairly reasonably get an HP or Dell (the new Dell's aren't nearly as bad as they used to be) or Sun 8 core box with reasonable ram and just a raid 1 for the OS. Then use the external IO we have available with that machine. Joshua D.
