@all: Take note that Dos_Box has bars at the windows. This is so that he can't escape!

OK, I'll bring my digi camera in tomorrow and take a snap of my two rooms. One's my office and the other is the server room.

Would love to see a pic of your server room when you've finished Ric_ - with your 10 (TEN) sun servers!

I've seen it. Currently its an old tuck shop with an portable air conditioner blowing cool air on the rack (7 feet of pure Sun sexiness). Last week someone pushed the air-con vent pipe back into the server room resulting on tempratures in the high 40's and all of the hardware safetys shutting the network down. Nice.

In our server room/office we have two parts. Once side where the server rack is to with AC so we don't get hot from the servers and the other side where it is full of boxes and computers. Looks like all ICT support staff offices should look like

The new server room is nearly there!

The new air con went in today and the dividing wall between the two old toilets was removed at the weekend. The 50A feed has also been run for the new UPS and my temporary connection will be in this week

When the new lino is down and the walls are painted I will post a pic. BTW - there's also a Fujitsu_Siemens server to go in the rack (which contains 10 Sun servers, a Tanberg autoload, an EMC SAN, 2 Belkin KVMs and one of the biggest APC UPSs you could ever imagine) and there will also be a Dell Powedge going in the server room

Anyone jealous yet?

Windows here I'm afraid - although those Apple servers in their specially designed racks are gorgeous

(it's wrong to think like that about servers...)

The APC rack looks shit hot though and the quality is superb (especially for the relatively low price).

My servers are Sun Fire V20z (single and dual Opterons - the Citrix servers have 4GB RAM!)
