Thanks. ;)
Sorry to everyone for the extended downtime. It has been a nightmare of the worst sysadmin kind. I had stress tested 2 different motherboards. The first one would run for less than 12 hours or so then crash. The second one lasted 48 hours with no issues. I decided to go ahead with the installation on that mobo.
So only after 2 hours of being at the co-lo the box dies with a kernel panic. Ugh. I ran to my favorite local hardware shop and bought a different brand of mobo.
For the moment the box is up, but I'm still not sure of the stability since this mobo didn't go through my normal rounds of stress testing. I won't go into the gory details, but trust me when I say I'm not happy with everything that has transpired. I'm not likely to be buying certain brands of hardware ever again.
I need a beer.

Hey Newman--for me, at least, the whole site is _much_ zippier. Love it. Thanks for all the work!
