cheap raid controller cards. By configuring I'm talking about making sure you get good hardware, not setup (which should be pretty transparent).
Stop means no. And no means no. So . . . stop.

Ann, that's a ferret.
We'll need more then, but if you ("you" generally) have cash now, feel free to send it along.
Is there a mailing address for those of us without PayPal?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
There is! Please email me (or donations@buffistas.org) for details.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
If we ever do need raid, we want to spend time configuring it.
I doubt we'll get the opportunity to spend time getting not cheap hardware, though. We should probably just ask them what they do.

Sorry, just a question ... was the message centre supposed to go away? Because its gone and I'm a little confused.

Abby, I think that it's not gone as much as its page is not fully loaded on occasion, as another aspect of the error message that some are getting (including me, and it's getting worse with time, in fact).
Of course, I have no real knowledge to support this assumption.
Lots of thanks to ita and Jesse and Kristen and Monique and everybody else who is working hard for all of us, because it can never be said enough.

Ah, that would make sense. Thank you Nilly!
And adding my thanks to yours, cause everyone who keeps this place afloat is amazing!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Just for the record, I'm not doing anything but paying the nice people.

Yeah, but you've volunteered to handle the board's finances as a whole. That may not involve problems beyond some simple accounting for this group, but in general taking such a position is making oneself a lightning rod for complaints and accusations from every disgruntled person who kicked in 50¢ at one point and doesn't like how it's being spent.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Also, if we ever get sued, You're the person who's name and address they have. :)
