[Gllug] mini Linux?

Hi,

True!

Nice to see someone has already spotted our new Dolphin mini. I believe
we may be the first company in the UK (or beyond!) to sell Debian
servers based on the Mini Mac. In our tests they have performed
astonishingly well, staying cool and producing enough performance
through their CPU's and disk IO to serve millions of web hits an hour
(of course this naturally depends on the content of your web site, but
even intensive CGI's which shell out and access the disk on each
instance can run comfortably at 20 hits a second.)

I expect there will be a few people watching this to see how it works
out :)

BTW, we always offer GLLUG mailing list members a discount, just mention
it to us if you are interested in anything we do.

Oh, also, expect news of another legendary ice.cream.org party coming
soon, those older list members should remember what fun this is, free
drink and food and no selling or catches (just the odd wandering
giraffe.)

Cheers!

Jake.
