Over the past few months the traffic to this web site as increased 10 fold and as a result we have outgrown our shared hosting server's capacity.

It was therefore necessary for us to upgrade from shared web hosting to our own dedicated server. This upgrade was completed at 8:00am GMT this morning.

Our site is now running on its very own dedicated server (spec posted below) and i'm sure you'll agree that the site is now lightning fast.

We would like to introduce the Super Server 2.8.

1024 MB RAM, 80 GB of storage, and dual integrated NICs

Intel Pentium 4 – 2.8Ghz

Some other boards seem to crash or meltdown every month or so,...But not here, we have Chris.

I can't remember the last time we had a problem.

Well done Chris, and all the other guys in RED.

I thought it was good to begin with, and always reliable. Great work Chris.

Why the traffic increase though ...
