    Edit 08-11-10: We're up and running on the new server. Please let me know if you experience any issues or other oddities :)

    Some users may experience service interruptions while backup tasks and other tests continue to run throughout this week. I am in the final stages of moving our file structure and databases to our new server. I should be performing final testing this weekend and with any luck launching early next week.

    Just wanted to to provide a heads up :)

    Cheers,
    Alex

    No problem at all.

    You want hardware or software specs?

    Fairly typical LAMP setup with Ubuntu 64bit. LAMP of course standing for Linux, Apache, Mysql, PHP.

    No it's been moved to an Atlanta based Linode Xen VPS for the back end. I've been very impressed with it so far.

    The OpenVZ stuff Timdorr/Gnax has is alright but it causes so may issues and working around a hacked linux kernel for your virtualization solution is a pain in the ass to speak well of it.

    No, that isn't related. I am working on moving our mail server over to google today.
