andrez ...2 or 3 'issues'...One is the basic software Mudcat is written in..Cold Fusion, which Jon Freeman has explained in the past can have memory leaks that require re-booting occasionally. Re-doing the entire system in another language would be an 'interesting' task.

Another is that no one 'tends' the box all day, like they did when it was in an office. Max needs to run down to the basement and kick something...after he gets home from 'life'. (and the basement is not climate-controlled, I'd guess..*grin*...computers are temperamental in changes of humidity and temperature.)

Finally, even though donations plus Max's own wallet upgrade equipment when we MUST, I'm sure that we aren't running on what Micro$oft and Google do, and it's done on local phone lines and electricity.....thunderstorm...zaaaaapppp!
