Just got 3 Dell PowerEdge servers to use for Drunk. They're the real deal, folks. Expect load times so fast you'll simply explode with surprise. Creepers will now be super-intelligent. They will know where you live. They will question the matrix into which we have placed them.
Technical specs and details, if anyone's interested: two Dell Poweredge 2850's and 1 2650. Each has 2 Intel Xeon processors and at least 2GB ram. Hard drives are arranged in a Raid 5, Raid 1, and Raid 5, accordingly. All have redundant power supplies, turbine fans, ducting, dual Gigabit LAN, hardware RAID controllers, and ECC Registered RAM.
One of the 2950's is being put aside for the time being as we don't have a use for it, but the more powerful one will be used as our primary webserver and as one or two Minecraft servers. The 2650 will be our new lab. We should be able to support 60+ concurrent users on our primary server, plus Mumble, plus the website, plus more stuff.
So, our current schedule for this is to get our servers migrated over to the new hardware this week, then get back to work on the Minecraft servers. Sorry everything's been slow-going, but life has been pretty ridiculous all around.
