    Any idea on the number of attendees? i.e. is this expected to be just a very small local meetup? Interested but would need to make extensive travel arrangements asap.

    I'm surprised Malta hasn't been discussed (tiny island in the mediterranean, just south of Sicily). I arrived here 5 years ago thinking it would be a paradise (its not). Below are …

    Primarily because I want to move to OSX and I'm looking for something more portable than the beastly W500 (+- 30% heavier than rMBP)

    Just remember that with the lower end dedicated servers you are dealing with desktop class hardware. With the last server I received from them one of the HD's in a raid1 was dead a…

    During what activities do you miss processor power on the Air? or is it just a general lack of responsiveness when booting, opening apps etc. and what is your processor?

    No, the W500 is limited to 8GB. The W510 can take 16GB and the W520+ 32GB

    Thanks, I already have the server capacity available and paid for so I wouldn't incur any additional cost. You may be right about that resolution though, I've never seen it. Thanks…

    Pinging my existing Hetzner servers is around 45ms which is acceptable latency for me. Reliability from Hetzner hasn't been great for our servers but for what I need it for it is r…

    We recently provisioned a new 32GB server from Hetzer. The server was delivered with only one of the two raid1 drives working. When I complained they said it would take a few hours…

    Buying up second hand books in bulk (think 5k+) and selling them individually on the Amazon marketplace. Incredible markups. Need lots of storage space though.
