Most of you will know who this is directed towards. It has recently come to my attention that certain individuals have been placing 2u servers into the shared colo while only paying for 1u service. This is a big problem. I went down there this weekend with Alex and saw there were only three slots left in the whole cabinet. Needless to say, it was a big pain in the neck to get my server out and the new one in.
I understand that you're able to get 2u at a deep discount. But in the process, you're ruining it for everyone else. Please consider going to one of the many fine used hardware vendors here in Atlanta and getting a used 1u. They can be had for as little as $150 and $200 will get a very very nice one.
I have a gently used 1u PIII with SCSI storage for sale for $100 if any of you are interested. If it were up to me, your servers would be unplugged already. You should thank your lucky stars that Alex is more understanding.
