A peek inside the SDMB server room

I thought this was Jerry.

Looks quite different from my last tour!

What was that? Please tell me it isn’t in use anymore! :eek:

Apparently everyone missed the 2008 server upgrade.

Pretty much explains everything IMHO.

I thought this was the new server. Apparently I’m wrong.

[QUOTE=mhendo]
Actually, the SDMB has four or five of these working in tandem.

Scroll down to see all the workings.

You know somebody on the Dope is going to want to build that now (Gorsnak, I’m looking at you. :smiley: )

The awful truth

Spare Parts

WTF is this server business? Everyone knows that Jerry’s got the latest Telecalculograph running this place! Sheesh! :rolleyes:

I love the THYRATRON!!! If I ever write a science fiction novel, it will have a robot named THYRATRON in it.

And you can have a robotic Suzanne Somers hawking a Thyratron Master.

Ah, hell. I threw that away twenty years ago. Wish Jerry would stay out of my trash.
Enough of the server, already! Here’s the router.

Router? Jerry asked for a new one, and this is what purchasing came back with.

I wonder if they’ll upgrade their current network connection.

Yarr, the pirates have seized control of the Dope, me hearties: http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c340/davemarkowitz/pirates/pirate_keyboard.jpg

We wouldn’t have so much trouble if these guys would stop trying to hack the Gibson.

I have it on very good authority that this is the official SDMB keyboard.

They did.

No matter which one we think it is, I’ll bet Vin Diesel and Keanu Reeves are the sysadmins.

I think that is the work station at Jerry’s desk.

Speaking of which, have you seen the guy’s desk?
