I signed the lease this afternoon and inspected the apartment. Very clean and in excellent condition. I like it!
There’s a nice walk-in closet in the bedroom that will be a perfect server room.
The living room is the perfect size and shape for my home theatre equipment.
Ordered Speakeasy DSL. That’s 6 perfect megabits of downstream bandwidth, baby! And no phone line! Ha!
Moving in tomorrow. Pictures on photoblog soon.

So why are you moving?
Re: No subject
I felt like having my own place again. Things are easier that way.
Congratumalations
Although I think Buffy isn't the right decor statement for that room :P
offtopic.
I know this is offtopic, but I can't really create threads here... :) I was just thinking your website is perfect for being designed just like gmail's conversation style cleint side expanding pages...
Something is wrong here.
I dunno if this is happening to anyone else but a good few times I get pages ending up like this:

Re: Something is wrong here.
you do realize that your problem is xp right?
Re: Something is wrong here.
And why is that, exactly? I use XP and have never seen anything like this.
Re: Something is wrong here.
Have you tried disabling AdBlock and any other add-ons that may alter the page?
Re: Something is wrong here.
There shouldn't be a problem with ad-block, my version only disables links which I specify and unsolicted pop-ups. Unless there is bits of doubleclick.net or other crap like that embedded in the site.
Hate to burst your bubble...
But I live in Keller, TX and I just had my 15Mb/s Down 2Mb/s Up Fiber to the home installed by Verizon. It rocks! :) No more copper lines to my house!! $49.99 a month.
Re: Hate to burst your bubble...
There are some pretty big institutions that squeeze through a T1 line. This is significantly more bandwidth (even upstream) than a T1 provides, so I om curious what the usage restrictions are like.
Re: Hate to burst your bubble...
No servers are allowed unless you get the business package. It allows servers and is 30Mb/s down, 5Mb/s up for $199.00.
Re: Hate to burst your bubble...
Still much cheaper than any other solution with similar specs. One wonders if this will have much of an affect on the price of bandwidth in the larger market while it's in trials.
Re: Hate to burst your bubble...
I don't know. I do know that for the first time in my life the server bandwith is uaually slower than my link. Occasionally I will hit incredible 15Mb/s down (Microsoft, Redhat, etc). But most sites I download from never get above 5-6Mb/s down.
SpeakEasy DSL
How long did it take for SpeakEasy to set up your connection and send you the needed hardware from when you first ordered your OneLink package? I'm planning on switching ISPs, but I don't want to be offline for several days because of it...
