There’s so any add-ons for it you can customize it to your heart’s content. From the indispensable text formatting toolbar to one that even makes it behave like IE (why you’d want that I have no idea) plus they update security wise much more frequently than Microsnot does IE, especially security updates.

Try it, you’ll like it.

one other point in the video I was trying to make, the Government (military)tends to blow things up rather well, i.e. perfect hole in the donutl.

your interpretation of what I thinking when I posted that clip.

BTW, when it comes to browsers I am a amateur, do not know what else to try as a browser. My beef with Microsoft is IE7 worked just find for me until they had to go all fancy with IE8. It seems they are reverting back to the issues we had with IE6.

“Then again it could be that IE 8 bites.”

Um, no offense but, duh.

As for the Swedish Chef, he *is* a good analogy for government. He speaks a different language, he is hard to understand when he’s actually speaking English, he uses the wrong instruments to get the job done, makes a mess, and when he’s done it’s nothing like what you wanted.

Government doing something efficiently is akin to the following little gem of a video... BTW, I am still finding a few bugs with the site update, of course with the infinite bandwidth of a cable modem late at night, I can not tell a difference from a few days ago. Then again it could be that IE 8 bites.

Like the Ultra-man of my youth, if I don’t get my RedState new post fix, a light on my chest starts beeping.

I didn’t know if I was going to make it.

In all seriousness, GREAT JOB!!!

Many thanks to Neil, Erick, et al, who make this possible.

I like cari.net for these types of hosting…

They can build a custom cluster for you and their prices are hard to beat.

For the web farm I could see single drives, but the database servers ought to be running a redundancy… on each server… otherwise load balancing is out the window in a drive failure(3 year mean time to fail)… could really bog the system down in that event,

Yes, I experienced the outages as well. The errors, the server down messages or whatever. But I took it for what is was: a heckuva lot more people were now trying to access the site and the existing servers couldn’t handle it. But that wasn’t just a good thing, that was great thing because it meant that thousands more people were tuning in to hear and see the truth about Government Rationed Health Care, Cap and Tax, etc. DaveinBoca is a pantload. Good riddance.
