I'm a Dreamhost Guinea Pig

Wish me luck I volunteered to go on one of their newer, energy efficient servers. Figured I'd get it over with sooner rather than later.

1. New! System-wide Upgrades!

What a lovely day today is! The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's
beautiful and so are you! Nothing is going to change my world today,
you'd have to be crazy to be in a funk with an environment like this!

Which is why we're doing our part even more to help keep it that way.
You might already know about our carbon offsets and what-not:

But the world is NOT ENOUGH! So, as I detailed in this blog post:

http://blog.dreamhost.com/2008/10/01/lets-save-our-environment-harder/

We will, over the next year or so, be transitioning ALL customers to new
servers (with local disk) that should result in greater than 50% cost er
energy savings in our data center!

Happy, Happy, Year!

2. Volunteer to Get Upgraded First!

Pshaw. That whole upgrade plan sounds like a hell-hole death-march of
busywork and problems, problems, problems. Haven't we ever heard of "If
it ain't broke, don't fix it?" I only know one thing, and that's that
no good can come of this.

If you've got a suicidal bent, and can easily be bought because you have
no principals, we've got an offer for you here:

If you actually VOLUNTEER to be one of the first moved to the new system
your account will be "upgraded" to unlimited disk and bandwidth, forever.
Of course, it's not like you'll use it, and it's of course subject to our
"unlimited" policy. If you do decide to do it, you'd be a damn fool to
not read the caveats listed there and *follow them*.

Damned fool if you do, gonna get moved eventually anyway if you don't.
