New Computer!!

crosshair.jpg

I got my new computer in the mail today, an ASUS CROSSHAIR Socket AM2 NVIDIA nForce 590 SLI MCP ATX AMD Motherboard with an AMD Athlon 64 X2 4000+ Windsor 2.0GHz Socket AM2 Dual Core Processor. Not the best processor available but for another 0.6MHz it would have cost me 2.5 times what this did and I didn’t see the point. However the motherboard is the best you can get on the market right now. (Or a week ago when I ordered it, its probably number 3 now).

I have a 1gig PC5300 memory chip that I am going to use in this system. Had it for a while and have yet to use it and now I can. Its a little unique…, watch the video of it here, so unique its a video of it.

Will provide stats and everything on this computer later. But since I am going to be installing it in my current case and this computer is going to my wife I will be computer-less for a day, then I will go to the field. So that may not happen for a while.

DAMN!!

DAMN!!

I am surprised at how well this new site has been doing. Opened it on the 2nd of this month and activated the counter on the 9th. Since the 9th I have gotten over 85,000 visitors, up to 11,000 in just one day. According to Alexa.com which is a site that ranks all the pages on the net ShamSchool.com is ranked 2,164,009 while RazorNylon that has been around for 9 years is only at 2,673,535. Over half a million higher in less than a month. Maybe I should of thought of doing this a while ago. Or maybe I should find a way to make some money off of it!

Server Upgrade

Server Upgrade

I have been talking about changing servers for several months now. Today, I finally put my money where my mouth is and went ahead and did it. Not only did I change to a more reliable server, but I managed to get a couple other upgrades as well. One of the more noticable upgrades is the increase in space. I went from 15gigs of web space up to an outrageously excessive amount of 100gigs. I can’t imagine what I will do with that much space as of right now, I do know that it is a lot. (I have one computer that only has an 80gig hard drive in it).

Right now the ACCP folder that hold most of the files for download is unreachable. The server has some kind of protection on it to hide the files if there is no HTML file there to view. Which for me is kind of nice, except for this one instance. This means that the only way people can download the newest ACCP is from the forum. I have to go through and create links to each file. There are over 2,600 files there and that could take a lot of time. For right now I don’t know what I am going to do, but I am sure I will think of something soon.

I am also in the process of moving all military related files and other material to a new domain. This will allow me to turn this site back into a more personal site like it was originally intended. The domain doesn’t sound so scarry or irrelevent to those coming to visit either. Currently, I have the site up and functional, however there is nothing there of intrest. I have the theme and forum completed but no files or anything else. It will have about 5 times the amount of files I have here. Such as ACCP, PowerPoint presentations, Award and NCOer Bullets, Counseling templates, and some videos. (Excessive amounts of each, as always with me). I am looking for some help if anyone is intrested. Its a full blown military site so I will need moderators to help me monitor any OPSEC violations. If your intrested in assisting me in being a moderator, donating more files to host on the page, or have some skills and want to give me a hand please contact me.

I will not disclose the new domain address until it is fully functional, so please do not ask.
