Machine problems


It has finally started to happen - the machine this site runs on is starting to give out. The machine hard locked again about a half hour ago. This is now the 3rd time it happened. I thought the other two were related to a new kernel, but this time it happened using the old kernel. We are in need of another machine pretty badly, the funds just aren't there however. Sorry for the downtime (it's very rare for this site). I'll see what I can do.

Sorry to hear it Jeremy. If you could somehow setup a P.O. BOX and a Donation Forum (for the time being), to get everyone up to date, I think everyone here has 4 quarters or a pound to send so that you can get what it is you need help with. If even 500 of your sum-thousands of users sent just $1 you'd have a good start...I'd be happy to help myself. Asking for help should be easy among freinds, and giving back as well. Let's see what we can do and see where the chips lie. Take it easy...
