This server is the latest in a long line of solaris boxes. It has, over the years been:
- ultra2 (retired) when 36g sca were huge! Probably around 1998?
- big desktop sun thing (suicided) rather nice dual cpu. NRI era.
- ultra2 (resuscitated) to take over again.
- ultra 30 (died from dust bunnies)
- ultra 60 (retired) blazing hot 73g sca! Maybe 2003?
- netra x1 (retired) slow, noisy, but rock solid, still works, but not worth the noise.
- intel core2 box with 8g of ram and 1Tb of disks. very quiet. From 2008 Feb.
For all of these iterations, it has been running Zeus web server, which is a fabulous piece of software. Trivial to install and it just runs, and runs, and runs …

I still have my “beta tester” backpack, it looks a bit battered these days, but there you go.
