About this site

Coding

I primarily used Vim to write this site. With the pages generated using PHP and CSS. The combination of the two is a breath of fresh air, although I've still got some ways to go in using PHP to its utmost.

Hardware

The hardware for this site runs on my Compaq 6400R Server. A cheap purchase on Ebay it came with one CPU and 256 MB of RAM. With a little part shopping here and there I've upgraded it to four CPUs of 550Mhz/1 MB Cache goodness and a whopping 4 GB RAM. A complete waste of electricity perhaps, but it runs every Linux related service on my network with grace.

Server Location

Located in the bowels of my parents house (I'm hardly going to run all 55 dBA of it from my desk!), this server is connected to a high speed internet connection, which thankfully means I can put some images on it without killing my bandwidth.
