The personal disquiet of

Mark Boulton

January 3rd, 2007

Off the Grid

Well, after only a month or so on being on Media Temple’s new Grid server, I’m off. Why? Well, in addi­tion to con­tinu­ing con­nectiv­ity issues MT are char­ging for GPU over­age. Since they can’t give me more details as to why I’m going over to the tune of about £30 every month (so I can attempt to reduce it right?), then I’ve got myself one of their nice new DV ded­ic­ated machines (with a little help and guid­ance from Andy and Steve).

As a res­ult, this site (and the fivesimplesteps site) and my email will be going through the usual DNS pain over the next couple of days. Fin­gers crossed it all sorts itself out. See you on the other side.
